Another modern day wonder drug to cure nearly every ailment known to man

Every week there is a new claim of these wonderous cures from the common cold to cancer and everything in between.

numerous studies find that people have lost a vital componenent of living!

"taking personal responsibility for your own health".

Surely taking these drugs is taking personal responsibility

Or do you have some point beyond moralizing I am missing?

(I am not currently taking these drugs, I do take hypertension meds, for idiopathic BP problems which of course, moralisingly I also manage by exercise and diet but unfortunately, God has determined I get the headaches from the BP no matter now much personal responsibility I take)

Well, yeah, it makes sense, since the obese and diabetic were the most vulnerable to COVID.

The most vulnerable were old male smokers with COPD, diabetes, cancer, kidney malfunction, elevated D-dimer and obesity. Just having two of those didn’t put you anywhere near the top.
