Years ago I read a SciFi book where after a certain age Diabetics were not allowed to buy insulin. I think no one with an illness that required maintenance medication, was allowed to purchase it. After a certain age, you just died or suffered. There was a big black market for medications of any kind. I don't remember the cut off age, except thinking at the time, I would be a "goner". Just makes me think, if we had some kind of disaster.....WW3, etc. with shortages, where would that leave us? Just one more thing to give us a case of Anxiety!
