US-specific news, no politics

Rules:

  1. No politics. Nothing about governments, parties, or politicians. I love politics but this is not a politics community, there are plenty of those. !politics@sh.itjust.works is recommended.
  2. Reliable sources only.
  3. Articles are good. Self-posts or blog posts by professionals or journalists are fine. Memes or random blogs, no.
  4. Post title must match the headline. Edits for clarity are fine.
  5. Don't be a jerk.
  6. No racism, no bigotry, no spam.
  7. Be productive.

So why not inject too much insulin? The few times it happened to me to cause a real issue i lost consciousness and only came to in an ambulance when someone did something about it.

Donno if non doabetics can counter too much insulin?

Whatever drug is used will get a reputation, even if it has legitimate, essential medical uses. You also have to convince the suppliers that it's okay, and that's a tall order even in the US where medical ethics don't exist; no company wants to say 'our insulin kills people', no matter how much you've dehumanized the people or state that you're using extreme dosages to achieve the effect.
