It's unfortunate but it looks like that's how things are these days. People are so fragile nowadays, popping pills at the first sign of discomfort. They have to be educated that most of the pills are not only not doing any good, but they all have side effects. The pills they are popping are making them sick, not making them well.
Personally, I think that life - with all its advancement and convenience in technology and what not, although making our lives easier, are sometimes not necessary in a good way.
The problem - with people and medicine is gradual and deep rooted, too difficult to be covered in a few words.
