How do you measure it though for blood content? Wouldn’t matter at work, because a positive is a positive, but what about driving under the influence? How would that work?

THC is a chemical that can be measured in the blood in the same was as alcohol.

If it keeps them from having to pay claims, the insurance companies will develop the technology for easy and accurate measurement of THC levels in the blood.

This has been a problem/issue since the mid/late 1960’s, when a major weekly news magazine had cover pages showing US Navy deck hands using drug hand signals on a US Carrier underway in the Nam era.

Alcohol and certain CNS drugs could/can be detected and measured after urine or blood tests were taken.

No one then nor now could know if a user was impaired via any blood levels.
