It's not like it's one pharmacy throwing out millions in one place. They've all been distributed through a tree of supply chain. A million here, give 2,000 each

It's not like it's one pharmacy throwing out millions in one place. They've all been distributed through a tree of supply chain. A million here, give 2,000 each to distributors to deliver, etc.
You essentially have to "undo" that chain faster than the product will go bad to a place it will be utilized in time.
Otherwise you'd have to travel to the majority of pharmacies all around the US and some how get that all to the airport.
And trucks/delivery drivers are very very expensive at scale.
