Campbell County sues Big Pharma over opioid pandemic

WCPO-TV in Cincinnati reports that there are now at least 65 counties in Kentucky and Ohio suing big drug companies for their role in the local pandemic of opioid overdoses. Campbell County is now among those in Kentucky joining the effort. The city of Cincinnati is suing too.

The lawsuits target 3 major drug makers and demand reimbursement for the costs incurred in curbing this crisis.

I hope the judge throws the book at Big Pharma.
