What about about side effects of the drug.

[@susanwright1999]

No one in there right mind would take it.

[@marylynch951]

Absolutely agree 👍

[@maryduffy2036]

The obesity problem is consequence of sedentary lifestyles, there are way too many gadgets/inventions contributing to the couch potatoes, junk/process ed food, takeaways. Anyone remember having to get up and move to change t.v channels ? The Obesity issue is a modern day problem, it wasn't a thing years ago, but I do remember America went obese first.

[@joma6805]

There is no obesity in society. There have always been plus size people. If you blame people for not being skinny enough, then you have a problem.

Its not always over eating that makes someone overweight, I have an underactive thyroid, I don't eat much,can't lose weight, I would be wasting my time getting jag,give money to pensioners

[@MissNibbles063]

Also our bodies change as we age For most of us men and women our bodies as teenagers are completely different by mid twenties, until middle age when we alter again How about instead of algebra at school we get educated in nutrition

[@marylynch951]

Well said and I agree 👍

[@gillianlaing1073]

It's not always overeating that's the problem, I have an underactive thyroid, don't eat much, can't lose weight

[@cab26]

So everyone is healthy and fit, will there be enough jobs to go around

[@aa-fw2pw]

Exactly! So many jobs have been lost with high street stores closing, councils becoming bankrupt, and other services coming to an end.

[@gillianlaing1073]

There's not enough jobs Togo round,& if your overweight, you've no chance of getting the job,unfortunately, jag or no jag

[@karenward4629]

I am using a jab to help control my diabetes. For the last year, the pharmacy has struggled to obtain the drug to fulfil my prescription because it is being sold privately as a weight loss drug. My health could be at risk if the drug is marketed for weight loss.

The money is from the manufacturer so they can build a future need so they can make billions
