Nearly 30 West Virginia hospitals have banded together to sue some of the biggest U.S. opioid producers for damages.Hospitals in West Virginia have banded together to sue some of the country’s largest opioid companies, saying they flooded Appalachia with powerful painkillers and forced medical centres to deal with the financial repercussions.
The suit is just the latest legal action against opioid companies. There are about 2,000 such suits across the country filed by state and local governments, American Indian tribes, unions, hospitals and others seeking to hold the drug industry responsible for the opioid crisis.
Chesterbrook, Pennsylvania-based AmerisourceBergen issued a statement calling the suit “counterproductive.” Purdue Pharma, based in Stamford, Connecticut, and Cardinal Health, in Dublin, Ohio, didn’t immediately respond to voice mails seeking comment.
And so they should, the utter destruction they have caused is just grotesque and they need to be held accountable for it, but it will be all in vain 💩💩💩💩😠😡😤😤🤬🤬🤬🤬😤😤😤😤🤬🤬
