I find it morally disgusting that there is a shortage of a drug that people with diabetes need because the rich and famous want to get slim the easy way.

[mariarobson]

As usual, if you've got the cash, you're front of the queue. I'm diabetic and I'm back of the queue.

[Noodles]

South Park has done an episode on this already 😂😂

[eugdee]

Yet another reason to have more controls on what can be prescribed by a private practice for cosmetic reasons. Private medical practices should be regulated must stricter laws on what they can offer.

[LimeyRedneck]

I had no idea Ozempic was such a midstream thing in the UK. Jesus.

[MaxeeG]

This feels like a pointless question compared to the sheer amount of corruption amongst those who we lend power to.

For me an irrelevant distraction.

[danielboard]

In a world where we are all morally void, blaming someone's else's anxiety on them rather than yourself is easier.

[jeanbartrum]

It causes muscle waste so its pretty stupid unless you do resistence training 4 times a week for 30 mins at least

[iamNATFAN]

great coverage as always laura and the rest of the poljoe team :)

[Frithogar]

Thanks for expertly guiding us through an ethical minefield.

[DW-indeed]

So.. it suppresses appetite, which logically means the people using it to lose weight eat too much? Interesting 🤔

[RankinMsP]

Sunak is skinny yet arguably stole the most.

[michaelrossel]

The fact that people with real medical issues can't get ozempic because people are led to think it is a cheat code to get yourself more atttractive and beach body ready is so fucking depressing. You're 10kg to heavy, get your arse on the stairmaster and work out!

[stuartmorgan]

Holy crap I remember zoning out at that exact Ozempic commerical in the states on holiday and only just realised that's what it was. This was in 2017 hadn't even clicked that it was the same drug until now.

[nathanaelsmith]

I cured my own type 2 diabetes by going on the keto diet for 5 months.

[sarahwhiting]

WTF? I couldn’t care less who is taking it!

[owestyo]

Amazing what happens when free bars and food stops.

[rubylilamoore]

0:21 They're abusing a drug, not "taking a celebrity weight loss drug"

[jonathanjameswebb]

OZEMPIC AND MOUNJARO ARE THE BEST MEDICATION I HAVE EVER TAKEN. OBESITY IS A DISEASE. THE CRITICS ARE IGNORANT. BODY POSITIVY IS A DELUSION.

It is personal falling when your wieght gets to the point its negatively effecting your health.
