It's just my opinion, but I believe that the "one click" places will be the first to go, then those that just require a questionairre. The sites that require medical records and a phone consult will probably hang on until legislation clearly defines what consititues a bona fide "doctor patient" relationship and a "legal prescription". Who knows how long all of this will take. Obviously, the sites with stricter requirements will be better off. Honestly, I'm hoping that when all of this coverage of Rush Limbaugh dies down, so will all of the coverage of prescription medications. It can't just be coincidence that it all occured at the same time. Once the next celebrity does something "newsworthy" (ie - gets a DUI, shoplifts, gets in a bar brawl), I'm praying the media will move on to the next "scandal". It's frightening.
