RE: meds
If I have a nasty cut from scrounging around for goodies in the rubble, and the cut is showing signs of blood poisoning or gangrene, and all I have available are antibiotics intended for the fish,

I'm taking them.

A little risk assessment here! We are not discussing the choice between taking Vet grade antibiotics or going to urgent care. We are talking about emergency medical treatment when no help is going to be available until the victim is past the hope of healing.

A. you are going to die without treatment
B. the meds may be no good, so you still die. No change in logic here, move along folks.
C. The meds may be good and you live.

!!! The correct answer is C !!!

But you can pick A or B and die if you want too.

And if the meds kill me I was going to die of gangrene anyway! The bad meds just saved me a long agonizing death.
