How Pharma Sabotaged the Drug Enforcement Agency and Caused Hundreds of Thousands of Deaths

https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/a...=104406540

Story at-a-glance
The Manchester, New Hampshire, fire department responds to more calls for drug overdoses than fires these days. In 2015, 33,091 Americans died from an opioid-related overdose; 15,281 were by prescription
In a recent episode of 60 Minutes, DEA whistleblower Joe Rannazzisi lays the blame for the opioid crisis squarely on the shoulders of the drug industry — especially the drug distributors — and Congress
Rather than taking proactive steps to curtail the opioid epidemic, industry lobbyists and Congress made it virtually impossible for DEA to take action against the top offenders and promoters of the epidemic by enacting the Ensuring Patient Access and Effective Drug Enforcement Act of 2016
President Trump has reconfirmed his intention to declare opioid addiction a national emergency, thereby securing much-needed funds and policy initiatives to address the burgeoning epidemic
As of February 1, 2018, CVS Pharmacy will limit opioid prescriptions to a seven-day supply for certain health conditions. By doing so, CVS becomes the first pharmacy chain to restrict doctors’ ability to overprescribe the drugs
