I mean, it sounds like maybe their medical system is more messed up than that this was all that fraudulent (assuming these were overweight people prescribed the drug for losing weight)
of course I think ozempic is a gamble and fasting is a better free and accessible alternative (excepting a minority of cases of people who can't fast due to medical reasons)
