So wouldn't five years be reasonable then? Just to be safe? How about
ten?


The number I gave you was for 2 year recidivism (The time period in
question). The 70% is made up of those who walked out of rehab and had a
drink within the hour, those that did so on day 729 and everyone in
between.

How about those who became addicted to prescribed painkillers?

In any case, I'm trying to find out what happens in the real world. I
expect to find that it's a, mostly, BS rubber stamp process. But, I'll
happily admit I'm wrong if I find otherwise. And, again, this sort of
policy would discourage addicts from seeking treatment, no? And, are there
any stats on which an opinion could be formed WRT risk of flying while
intoxicated? AFAIK, drugs and alcohol rarely are a factor in accidents. Of
those where they are, how many involved people who had been through rehab in
the prior two years?
