Opiod epidemic, was it planned??

The opioid epidemic, was it planned??

In the 90's the pharmaceutical companies marketed opioids as being safe, and non-addictive. THIS WAS A LIE!

At the same time medical physicians were paid by the pharmaceutical companies to go to classes, where they were taught to be more aggressive with their treatment of pain.

This was the pharmaceutical companies "BLOCKBUSTER" way of making money! On us!

More than 64,000 people died from opioid overdose last year, 3x more than the AIDS epidemic of the 80's

It can happen to anyone. We are all just 1 car accident, 1 sports injury, 1 tooth pulling away from addiction.

Addicts are not bad people trying to be good, they are sick people trying to get better. Addiction can be arrested, locked up, you just can't ever put that key back in the lock.
