But there’s np other organization in the country is better equipped to doliver something to every address in the nation than the USPS. It has its inefficiencies and failings, but on the whole they do their job well.

The post office does a decent job despite being run by the govt. I prefer them for shipping packages as they are fast and cheap.

In this case there is a major biological attack serious enough to require distribution of medicine to everyone. You use an organization with zero medical training or experience to go house to house acting as a disease vector?

And then theres the idea of dispensing medicine to every person without any idea of their medical history, condition, or ability to properly dispense.

I would assume at this point actually taking the medicine is going to be mandated.
