Dr. George Lundberg study of 90,000 Los Angeles County admissions found very few hospitalizations tied to marijuana, while nonprescription sleep aids, alcohol, tobacco, barbiturates, and amphetamines caused far more admissions and deaths. It notes marijuana's relative rarity as a cause of hospitalization and urges law reform aligned with its real societal role.
