Eh, doctors knew, every one has known that opioids are addictive for hundreds of years. Are the Sacklers scum? You bet, but let’s not put all the blame on them. Vicodin used to be prescribed for minor injuries, as a kid I remember getting codeine cough syrup every winter, people with chronic pain were perpetually prescribed dilaudid, and somehow I’m to believe the “opioid crisis” was caused by OxyContin?

It would be interesting to see it with an understanding of distance and where all these earthquakes epicenter is.

As an earthquake of 7+ hits, then the aftershocks like the ones felt across the Levant into Egypt. Cyprus and even other Mediterranean cities felt aftershocks. My question is, would these aftershocks register as separate earthquakes in different area that they are felt in or register as one continuous delayed shock from the Mag 7+ that happened miles away?

If all these happened within Turkeys border, then there must be an even larger set of data points if we include other countries within those same 48 hours.

Earthquakes are frightening & I wish all those affected strength. The region is in dire shape to begin with.

This has everything to do with battling the opioid epidemic. Doctors were misled and lied to by Purdue reps regarding the addictiveness of these drugs. Purdue pushed oxycodone HARD. This absolutely led to patients becoming addicted, and later overdosing. Purdue was taken to court by multiple states over this.
