Effin' Drug Ads

^ Ads are never-ending for drugs to treat diseases that few have heard about..

^ Side effects are numerous, so the announcer reads them in double time.

> What is in the drug? "Don’t take it if you’re allergic to what it's all about."

⏩ The double-time cadence of the speaker spells out the side effects, making it seem no one should take it.

🤔?? Random ideas run through my brain: A) Do they have company contests to name new drugs? B) Could they better allocate funds to help people stay healthy rather than treating health issues after they appear?

Each individual could consult their physician, list many of their symptoms, thinking they are candidates for new compounds or capsules.

Not a statement against medicine or prescriptions that people need. These are, rather, comments on how many think it's easier to take a pill than to work on staying healthy, and on the doctors who give patients ten minutes, don't treat the individual, and write a script to move on to the next patient. Healthcare is not health care. It is sick care.
