The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked Purdue Pharma from going forward with bankruptcy proceedings, which the Biden administration has called an “unprecedented” arrangement that would ultimately offer the Sackler family broad protection from opioid-related civil claims.
Ok, still a ways to go before celebration, but we’re trending in the right direction. So, I’m choosing optimism.
Rehab costs about $30k for 28 days. As if the hundreds of thousands of deaths and overdoses per year weren’t enough. Suboxone is $700+ per month just for the pills, not including seeing the doctor monthly and random drug tests. Methadone’s not cheap either. Then there’s secondary health issues like sepsis, MRSA, HIV, hepatitis, heart problems, pregnancy issues, withdrawal, DUI injuries/deaths etc.
The list goes on and on and on and on. I wouldn’t be surprised if a trillion barely covered it.
