Former Health Minister Dr. Duane Sands is sounding the alarm on people buying weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy from shady online sellers — calling it reckless and blaming buyers if complications strike. These prescription-only meds, meant for diabetes and obesity, are flooding social media as cheap “quick fixes,” often sold by unlicensed aestheticians and others with no medical training. Dr. Sands, a cardio surgeon who’s seen patients lose 100 pounds and regain health, argues these drugs should be government-funded for broader access. Meanwhile, current Health Minister Dr. Michael Darville confirms the government is moving to cover GLP-1 drugs through National Health Insurance for eligible chronic disease patients — though no rollout date has been set. He emphasizes that while meds help, lifestyle changes remain essential to solving the nation’s obesity crisis. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
