Note this was just ONE doctor, over the span of a couple weeks. Assuming 350 patients X 20 tablets, that’s 7,000 tablets by one doctor. Hospital and retail pharmacies across the country are being wiped out by doctors prescribing to themselves, family and friends, along with patients.
There are doctors writing prescriptions for people who are not even infected, including one doctor who is a member here. Multiply that times thousands of other doctors, and states were forced to intervene. If this was allowed to continue, there wouldn’t be medicine for the seriously ill. But there will be plenty for the wealthy and connected. Maybe we could distribute the national stockpile of respirators to the highest bidders...
