I can already hear the screams of the privacy advocates, those who see this as a another increase in the cost of health care, advocates who say this is nothing more than a ploy to protect the big drug companies, etc., etc..
When all is said and done, publicity for RFID on wholesale drug containers may be as effective as the implementation to cut down on the counterfeit drug trade.
As for theft, people will bring their own containers when stealing drugs from the local pharmacy for personal use or resale.
This is not a panacea.
