The creators of OxyContin, the Sackler family, have blood on their hands. Their pursuit of wealth led to an opioid crisis, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths and the addiction of millions. The recent Supreme Court block of their proposed settlement including legal immunity only reinforces the malevolent legacy of a family that created a multi-billion dollar empire by ruthlessly exploiting the vulnerable.

What should we do with the most evil family in America? First of all, we physicians need to realize our role in exacerbating the opioid crisis, a sobering recognition that fuels our commitment to do better. It's a conversation that needs to be had, and it starts here.
