Requiring Surveillance in Pharmacies
From SecurityInfoWatch.com:
Louisiana state Senator James David Cain is pushing for adoption of Senate Bill 24, which would help to control access to the common cold and sinus medications used in the illicit production of crystal meth. . . . The bill would also require that pharmacies use a surveillance camera pointed at the cold/sinus medications area to record fo 15 days. The bill gives an option around the camera footage, in which case the pharmacist would need to get ID from the buyer, have the person sign a form, and record the name of the consumer and their age and how much they purchased.
A similar bill recently passed in Hawaii legislature that would limit purchases to three packages and would require that cold medicines be kept in a position viewable by a pharmacist or sales clear, or a surveillance camera.
