Aspirin is a treatment.
If you stick to the max 3g per day currently recommended
Then it reduces fever caused by viral infection
But if you use too much
Like the 8g to 30g per day given in 1918 to flu victims
Then the blood thinning effect is ramped up
And blood vessels in the throat and lungs damaged by coughing
Start to leak profusely
Filling the lungs with liquid
That is called pneumonia
And was the main cause of death for Spanish Flu victims.
The CURE was worse than the problem itself
That is how medications work
They do NOT CURE ANYTHING
They just tinker with the body's metabolism
And a skilled physician can apply the right medication
In the right amount at the right time
To make patients get better.
Medications are like guns.
If you point yours at your head and pull the trigger
Then your 2A rights are not much use
Use medications with knowledge and with respect.
