Résumé : |
Michael Ashburn, MD, MPH, tells of a new black market in Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood, which, compared with the city as a whole, has a significantly higher percentage of residents living in poverty and a significantly lower life expectancy.
Don't expect to find illicit drugs or designer knockoffs in this black market. Instead, said Ashburn, director of pain medicine at Penn Medicine, wheelchairs, crutches, and antibiotics are the hot commodities. [Extract] |
