#WAOpioidTrial Day 22 is now starting; WA state vs. McKesson, et al can be watched here for the morning session (then the link disappears at the lunch break).

We resume with the depo from a Cardinal employee being played; most of which we saw last Thurs.

#WAOpioidTrial Once again the questions are about how the pharmaceutical distributors offered marketing/ad opportunities to the manufacturers.

Which somehow makes the distributors liable for the 'opioid crisis' which is almost exclusively polypharma heroin/fentanyl/meth. M'kay.
#WAOpioidTrial The rules of evidence remain ... elusive.

Somewhat lengthy technical discussion about whether the witness in the depo could refer to 'notes' about facts about a doc she had not seen.

Cardinal's objection is sustained! (I have no idea about why, but okay!)

#WAOpioidTrial Day 21 is now starting. Here is this morning's link, good only as long as the court is in this morning's session. It will disappear at around noon when the court adjourns for lunch.

Will the 'not-an-expert-witness' shenanigans continue? 🤔

#WAOpioidTrial Oh that is interesting - Dr. Banta-Green just closed that the attorney I assumed was 'his' is actually representing the University of Washington .. . from the WA State Attorney General's office.

Um. It's the AG who is the plaintiff. Well. That's curious.
#WAOpioidTrial McKesson's counsel is cross-examining Dr. Banta-Green. Showing this site from ADAI. Specifically THIS chart. Showing hospitalization rates ... by substance. Most of which . . . are not RX opioids.
