CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - At the University of Virginia Medical Center, people were able to drive through and drop off unused medications and prescriptions, all with the goal of keeping these pills off the streets.
“Across the country, across the state, across the county, there are multiple sites where people can go and drop off these medications,” resident physician at UVA Harrison Plunkett said.
He says this drive-through event is in partnership with the Drug Enforcement Agency’s National Drug Take Back Day on April 24.
Hobby farmers can reap many benefits from owning food animals in a domestic environment; among these are eggs, fiber, companionship, and for owners of animals like cows, miniature cows, and goats, milk. However, milk obtained from an animal needs to be treated through a process called pasteurization in order to be fit for consumption.
âPasteurization is the process of heating milk (or other foodstuffs) to a specified time and temperature in order to kill organisms in the milk that may cause spoilage or disease if consumed,â said Dr. Benjamin Newcomer, a clinical associate professor with the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciencesâ (CVMBS) Veterinary Education, Research, & Outreach (VERO) program. âPasteurization is practiced widely to enhance food preservation and promote food safety.â

Through her attorney, Gene Scott, Adamson waived her charges from Washington County General Sessions Court to Criminal Court on Thursday and entered the plea Friday.
She was not indicted on the charges, but pleaded to what is called an âinformation,â a document similar to an indictment where the defendant waives the case from going to a grand jury.
