Show Notes

Drug testing became a standard after a landmark even in 1981 when a marine warfare jet slammed into the USS Nimitz’s flight deck.  Autopsies on 6 out of 14 crew men showed evidence of heavy marijuana use.  This led to President Ronald Regent issue Executive Order #12564 instituting a Zero Tolerance policy for federal employees.  Jo McGuire joins Dr. Lev in discussing the nuances of work place drug testing that exist today.
