Newspeak: "Why Some Are Stealing Medications From Their Pets"

Standard English: People who cannot afford to be raped by the corporate "health care" system are evading System control and treating themselves.

There is now scientific evidence that some people may be sharing their pets’ medications.

The use of pet meds was so unexpected, the scientists didn’t even ask about it in their survey about unprescribed antibiotic use. But people must have done it frequently, as they actually wrote it into their answers, saying it is one way they get off-prescription antibiotics.

(...)

“We thought that was some other country’s problems, not ours. That was an additional surprise,” said Dr. Larissa Grigoryan, who has studied non-doctor-prescribed antibiotic use in other countries and found that Americans tend to hoard more antibiotics than other parts of the world.

And, the whopper of the week:

Study co-author Dr. Barbara Trautner was not as surprised....“We metabolize things differently than animals do, and these drugs are formulated for animals,” Trautner said.

WARNING: let this article be a bold warning to all preppers, who buy veterinary-class medications for emergency purposes. "They" will surely be cracking down, soon.

And no, the medications are not "formulated for animals." They are the same United States Pharmacopeia as human-class medications...the dosing is what is different.
