These are not accidental shortages.

The suits at the drug companies aren't as ignorant as we'd like to think. Instead, they are crafty and focused on maximizing profits. Yes, they can dazzle us with all the "reasons" their products are in short supply, but I don't believe even a tenth of it.



For the most part, I don't care if drugs are in short supply - too many of us take too many already. I'm concerned with the important injections that are suddenly not available - especially the ones used in anesthesia. Without them, surgeries may be postponed or cancelled - or the anesthesiologists may revert to a shot of whiskey and a bullet to bite on.
