The dumbest thing I've ever heard? Maybe.
This is something I just learned, and it's pretty much the worst. Go ahead and get mad:
Unfortunately, one of the populations that has been hit especially hard in Katrina's aftermath has been hospice patients. Making things far worse, however, is that federal law requires that a hospice patients' remaining medication be destroyed when they die.
So far, it's hard to think of anything about the response to Katrina that has gone in any way right. The destruction of perfectly good (and sorely needed) medications might be one of the surest indications of this.
