I may catch h!!l for this, but I would think that it would only be fair for those who choose to keep venomous snakes to be required to aquire and keep their own antivenin. If the stocks are in short supply,it seems that those who are legitimately accidentally bitten(while gardening,accidentally treading on a snake,etc), should have first access. If someone CHOOSES to be around venomous snakes, then they are assuming the risk of being bitten. They should have to assume the responsibility of their own safety,and in the event of being bitten, of treating the bite with antivenin. Why should some 5 year old child have to suffer from being bitten while playing in their own yard, because the available antivenin was used on a person bitten by a venomous snake he CHOSE to be around?

Mail this to all area hospitals. 30 years old man came to ER complaining of snake bite. ER doctor assessed the man and said "He is okay. The man went home and came back 24 hrs later with serious snake bite. Guess what, the hospital is out of CroFab. The ER dept and Pharmacy dept have to send staff 60 miles away to get Crofab.
I hope the Fed pass a law for those who play shock and awe with snake to play cash when they show up in ER room for snake bite service.
Thanks

If someone checks into a hospital with a snakebite and the hospital has CroFab, the staff is obligated to use it to treat the bite. It cannot refuse treatment based on the possiility that a 5 year old will need it the following day.
People who handle hots do not do so in the expectation of getting bitten. But it does happen. A child's parents do not let him/her go out into the yard expecting the child to be bitten by a venomous snake. But that happens, too.
Cool your jets and stop trying to play God.
