I was in a meeting yesterday where the lobbyists for Norvo Nordisk and Bay Bio were stating that the DEA wasn&#8217;t having any more med collections because 40% of what they were collecting was not targeted product and they were told it was medical samples.&nbsp; I asked
 for names or anything in writing and didn&#8217;t get them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
