THE METH SCOURGE

Bravo to NEWSWEEK for its thorough and informative cover story on the 
methamphetamine epidemic ("America's Most Dangerous Drug," Aug. 8). Our 
emergency department sees the destroyed lives and bodies from this newest 
plague more and more. Your article should be required reading for all 
health-care professionals, teachers, parents and students. Its clarity 
might well keep someone from taking that first step toward the precipice.
