While it's a tragedy that even one life has been lost because of prescription meds, I think that the statistic is just fear mongering unless compared to the billions of lives saved.
You, and your above mentioned friends, have NO statistics whatsoever to support your view. If you can call my statistics "fear mongering", I suppose your complete lack of statistics could be called "ignorance mongering."

I'll post the results of a large study in my next post. Stay tuned.
