Yeehaw!

What kind of person would water down coffee?

"So, randompersonrandom, now that you've been reading about grey for hours a day for a month and a half and have all that grey market Zepbound, can you--" "NOPE."

These people are slowly ruining it for all of us. I am counting down the minutes until that certain domestic vendor with the purple logo gets busted. His telegram has 16.5k members and counting. From what I’ve witnessed, at least 50% of those people are morons. It’s going to take one person getting deathly sick from doing something stupid and the hammer of god is going to come down. Seems like every time something happens prices go up and vendors become more scarce.

Are we sure it was counterfit Sema?

Or did she just do a massive dose of it? Like 10x the usual recommendation

If you buy an injection from a coffee shop, nobody should come to your aid

I don’t know if they call all Semaglutide “counterfeit Ozempic” or if the woman actually told the “victim” that it was Ozempic and labeled it that way. From a legal perspective I think it’s misleading to say counterfeit unless it’s the latter. I do know of a source that you can order boxes from that will say Ozempic, Mounjaro or whatever you want them to. Either way I’m confident it was user error. Consider all the people on her that ask recon questions because they don’t do research. Maybe one of or attorney members could chime in. I’m opining based on my law enforcement background.

It sure sounds like she took too big of a dose.
I happens with the "real" versions too. But those cases don't make headlines.

I swear, I become more libertarian with each passing year.
I believe all the things everyone is commenting above are true (Lilly is loving this, people are so dumb, it's moving to some type of inevitability).

It's just that what becomes a news story is no longer 'organic' or non-contrived, so I now always wonder why this story? Why the fear-mongering? What are they trying to make me 'feel'? Because there are people that DIE daily, shockingly, from a lot of preventable and tragic events. Ice cream! Commercial ice cream and shake machines have been prone to listeria every few years, and people actually die, many get very, very sick. And a few of those ice cream manufacturers are REPEAT offenders (well done FDA).

This cycle of stories is designed to smooth the way for government clamp down and wiping out of this particular avenue of health and wellness freedom that the majority of people don't abuse. With people cheering and feeling like they're being taken care of by their gov.

Have eaten street food in LA and in other countries, never gotten sick--I've had food poisoning twice (from local gov inspected restaurants) that was probably as bad as what these coffee/peptide people went through.
Life is all "caveat emptor"

Also, don't we think that if a few silly people get really sick, it'll discourage other casual ignorant users from going that route? I believe life works that way.

Well said!

Yeesh. I have a pretty high risk tolerance, but I would NEVER sell research peps for profit, even if I tested. You really can't trust people to figure out the math themselves. Then, when they end up taking 10x the normal dose (I agree, that's likely what happened here), they want someone to blame, and will be quick throw you under the bus. No, thank you. I'm happy just to get them inexpensively for myself.
