None of this surprises me, not the corruption at any stage, or level, even Presidential. As to Oxycontin, it is the go-to pain-reliever used by the British NHS after surgery, but patients don't get many tablets from the hospital and they are of 'low' dosage. I first came across it in 2015 when I was given 10 days supply.

Me: isn't this stuff addictive?

Staff: it's such a low dose there's no chance, stop worrying.

Eleven days later I went into classic Cold Turkey symptoms, thankfully only for 24 hours, then I felt as right as rain. Oh yes, I can truly understand the level of overdose deaths in the USA. And they wonder why people question the Covid vaccinations.
