To me at least, celebrating individuals using drugs that support an unhealthy lifestyle does not appear like a positive for society at large. I thought medicine was about aiding people to become healthy, not providing quick fixes to common problems. Why is this being celebrated?

EDIT: I do not mean to say Ozempic is useless or dangerous, only that celebrating it as a solution to the problem of obesity is. It is certainly a tool that helps people. I don't think it should be relied on continously. People need to live healthy lives to be healthy. I am not perfect, no one is. Losing weight is hard.
