A sensible request, given the long history of the drug.
A back hand by the Pharmacy Board, A forehand slam by DeWine. Game, set. match to the governor!
Wait a minute. If the original decision was based on science, why would a request by the governor make any difference? /sarc
How many died in the meantime?
How many died across America from a non-medical persons political rulings on a clear medical decision??
I know this is bs from dewine past ban but at least he’s listening without that friggen nurse he had on his administration. Unfortunately she still is working for him but not making his decisions.
DeWine is a two faced snake on this. He has a doctor on his staff that straightened him out on the issue. Good for the doctor and a grudging atta boy to DeWine.
Why does the Governor of a State have to “ask” and “appeal to” a bunch of puffed-up pill-pushers for anything? Something is seriously backwards in Ohio, and all these other states where similar unelected boards of “experts” are yanking proven medicines off the market to serve a political agenda.
Pharmacists have turned into pompous assholes ever since Diversity and the War on Drugs. How come they all seem to be Indian and Chinese women who couldn’t hack real Doctor school and resent having to work in a fish tank in the middle of Walmart? I can only speculate about the demographics of the Ohio Board of Pharmacists, but I’d wager that it probably looks like your average corporate HR department, except the black women are Jamaicans.
That’s probably why the freaking white male GOVERNOR OF THE STATE had to kiss their asses to keep them from doing something so monumentally stupid.
Wow. Boxwine finally grew a pair.
