Federal drug officials are warning Georgia to shelve its plans to be the first state to allow pharmacies to dispense medical marijuana products.
News outlets report that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on Nov. 27 warned pharmacies that dispensing medical marijuana violates federal law.
Huh, I might have heard of that before. Anyway, the US funds 44% of the world’s medical research. Europe, 33%, and the situation hasn’t been much different there. Canada and China have done some research on it. But my point is that the idea of formally researching medical cannabis isn’t something people have just chosen not to do, though it’s definitely not a priority for pharma companies.
