      The @Surgeon_General just said that cannabis leads to the use of more dangerous drugs. You want to educate the public about the harms of underage cannabis use? Then stick to the real harms and stop spouting this propagandistic nonsense that makes kids ignore our admonitions!https://twitter.com/Surgeon_General/status/1167467091676606464 …

      We sadly no longer have C. Everett Koop, but Joycelyn Elders supports our work as an active honorary board member of @DFCRorg. These were two historic Surgeons General who had the courage and wisdom to advocate for societal change when needed. We hope you're listening, Dr. Adams!

      My advisory is in part a continuation of Dr. Koop’s work and warnings on marijuana from 1982 in which he states, “Marijuana use is a major public health problem in the United States!” https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00001143.htm …

      Unfortunately marijuana potency is significantly higher & even more likely to cause harm with use in youth and pregnancy- than in 1982 when Koop first expressed his concerns for the developing brain! “Of special concern are the long-term developmental effects in children”

          Facts: 1) My mom smoked marijuana for morning sickness while she was pregnant. 2) I've been a practicing attorney for 15 years.

          What's your solution? We should destroy the stigma, teach people facts about the plant instead of giving it funny, catchy names. Most people will eventually want less THC.. and more production safeguards.. there's far more to Cannabis than THC. Prohibition made percentages rise.

          Your propaganda on #cannabis is just as bad (or good, depending on how you look at it) as your cries of 'epidemic' of #vaping in youth. (Non-smoking #youth who vape amount to about 3 in 500 of youth.) The investigation of @DanaLarsen on #cannabis strength.https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1167941723969900544.html …
