    Funny but I dunno if I buy it tbh, using an EpiPen alone is a medical emergency requiring medical attention. It’s not something you can just shake off.

      Also I read somewhere that an EpiPen works in like 95% of cases. There is a small but existing chance that it won’t work and you just die from anaphylaxis.

      Depends on the severity of the allergy. Sometimes epipens are prescribed for people who have a risk of anaphylaxis but have never actually experienced it. Which means that people doing this are still tremendously stupid, but not unbelievable.
