हमने यह तय किया था कि हमारी इस फिल्म 'Warning: This Drug May Kill You' में दिखने वाला हर वह इंसान जो नशे का आदी है, वही होगा जिसकी शुरुआत डॉक्टर के पर्चे पर मिली किसी ओपिऑइड दवा से हुई थी। जो कहानी अब तक सामने नहीं आई थी, वह यह है कि आज के दौर के ज़्यादातर हेरोइन पीने वाले—करीब 80 प्रतिशत लोग—प्रिस्क्रिप्शन वाली ओपिऑइड दवाओं की लत से ही इस रास्ते पर आए हैं। इसलिए भले ही लोग इसे देखकर यह कहें, 'अरे, यह तो असल में हेरोइन की समस्या है,' तो हाँ, यह हेरोइन की समस्या है और इस बात से कोई इनकार नहीं कर रहा, लेकिन ज़्यादातर मामलों में इसकी शुरुआत डॉक्टर के पर्चे पर मिलने वाली दवा से ही होती है।

We did decide that every addict in this film, Warning: This Drug May Kill You, would be someone who started out with a prescription for an opioid from a doctor. The story that hadn't been told is that the vast majority - somewhere around 80 percent - of current heroin users began with an addiction to prescription opioids. So as much as people might want to look at this and say, 'Oh this is really a heroin problem,' yes, it is a heroin problem, and no one is saying differently, but it starts more often than not with a prescription.

1999 में, ऑक्सीकॉन्टिन (OxyContin) बनाने वाली कंपनी पर्ड्यू फार्मा (Purdue Pharma) ने एक बहुत बड़ा मार्केटिंग अभियान चलाया था। उन दिनों, प्रिस्क्रिप्शन वाली ओपिऑइड दवाइयां सिर्फ बेहद गंभीर मामलों में ही दी जाती थीं—जैसे सर्जरी के बाद, जीवन के अंतिम चरण की देखभाल (एंड ऑफ़ लाइफ केयर) के दौरान, या कैंसर के दर्द में। हमने फिल्म में एक विज्ञापन का क्लिप इस्तेमाल किया है जिसमें एक डॉक्टर यह कहते हुए दिखाई देते हैं, "प्रिस्क्रिप्शन वाले ओपिऑइड का लंबे समय तक इस्तेमाल करने वाले 1 प्रतिशत से भी कम लोगों को इसकी लत लगती है"—इस बात ने देश भर के डॉक्टरों की सोच ही बदल दी।

In 1999, Purdue Pharma the maker of OxyContin went on a massive marketing campaign. Back then, prescription opioids were only used in extreme cases - post surgery, end of life care, cancer pain. We use a clip from an ad in the film where they had a doctor saying, "Less than 1 percent of people who use prescription opioid long-term will become addicted" - that changed the mindset of physicians across the country.

मुझे सच में लगता है कि ज़्यादातर मामलों में डॉक्टरों को यह बिल्कुल नहीं लगा होगा कि वे कुछ गलत कर रहे हैं—वे वही कर रहे थे जिसकी उस समय सलाह दी जा रही थी, और कई बार लोग इन प्रिस्क्रिप्शन ओपिऑइड्स को ले पाते थे और उन्हें कोई समस्या नहीं होती थी। लेकिन हम यह अच्छी तरह जानते हैं कि अगर हम इन दवाओं का सेवन लंबे समय तक करते हैं, तो बहुत जल्दी, यानी महज एक हफ्ते के भीतर ही इसकी शारीरिक निर्भरता (डिपेंडेंसी) पैदा हो जाती है। हम सबको यह समझने की ज़रूरत है कि ये गोलियां हेरोइन की ही रासायनिक रिश्तेदार हैं—एक अवैध ओपिऑइड है और एक वैध, लेकिन दोनों आपस में जुड़े हुए हैं।

I really do think for the vast majority of cases, doctors didn't think they were doing anything wrong - they were doing what was being recommended at the time, and many times people were able to take these prescription opioids and not have a problem with it. But what we do know is that if we take these drugs long-term, dependency develops quickly, within as little as a week. What we all have to realize is that these pills are chemical cousins of heroin - one is an illegal opioid and one is legal, but they are relatives.

हालाँकि, मैं यह स्पष्ट कर देना चाहती हूँ कि मेरा यह मतलब बिल्कुल नहीं है कि ये खराब दवाइयां हैं। गंभीर दर्द के लिए थोड़े समय के लिए ली जाने वाली ओपिऑइड दवाइयां बेहद असरदार होती हैं। समस्या तब पैदा होती है जब इनका इस्तेमाल लंबे समय तक रहने वाले पुराने दर्द के लिए किया जाने लगता है। कोई भी यह नहीं चाहता कि कोई इंसान पीड़ित रहे और दर्द सहे। लेकिन यह बात समझें कि ये दवाइयां कितनी बुरी तरह लत लगा सकती हैं और जितनी जल्दी हो सके इनसे छुटकारा पाइए। इसलिए 'चेतावनी: यह दवा आपकी जान ले सकती है' (Warning: This Drug May Kill You) फिल्म का मकसद असल में इन दवाओं के बारे में लोगों को जागरूक करना है ताकि हर कोई अपने दर्द और इन दवाओं की लत डालने की प्रवृत्ति के बीच खुद फैसला ले सके।

I want to make it clear, though, that I am not trying to say these are bad drugs. Opioid medications in the short term for severe pain are very effective. The problem is when they are used for long-term chronic pain. No one wants anyone to suffer and be in pain. But realize how addictive these drugs are and get off of them as quickly as you can. So 'Warning: This Drug May Kill You' is really more about educating people about these drugs so that everyone can make their own decision about their pain versus the addictive nature of these drugs.

मध्य आयु वाली गोरी महिलाओं की औसत जीवन प्रत्याशा (लाइफ एक्सपेक्टेंसी) पिछले एक दशक में काफ़ी तेज़ी से गिरी है। शोधकर्ताओं को समझ नहीं आ रहा था कि आखिर चल क्या रहा है, इसलिए वे इस पर अध्ययन कर रहे थे और फिर हाल ही में उन्हें समझ आया कि इसकी मुख्य वजह ओपिऑइड्स (दर्द निवारक दवाएं) हैं। ऐसा क्यों है? अब उनका कहना है कि इसकी वजह यह है कि महिलाएं दर्द के सिलसिले में डॉक्टर के पास जाने की ज़्यादा संभावना रखती हैं।

Life expectancy for middle-aged white women has dropped dramatically over the past decade. Researchers didn't understand what was going on and so they were studying it and then very recently they realized it is driven by opioids. Why is that? They say now that it is because women are more likely to see a doctor for pain.

पहले, "तस्वीरें झूठ नहीं बोलतीं" इस भ्रम का इस्तेमाल चालबाजियों को छिपाने के लिए किया जाता था। अगर मैं आपका पोर्ट्रेट बनाऊँ, आपको व्यवस्थित करूँ, आप पर रोशनी डालूँ, मेकअप करूँ या किसी फिल्टर का इस्तेमाल करूँ, तो क्या मैं हकीकत के साथ खिलवाड़ नहीं कर रहा हूँ? फर्क सिर्फ इतना है कि अब मैं क्लिक करने से पहले की बजाय, कंप्यूटर के जरिए क्लिक करने के बाद यह सब कर सकता हूँ। यदि मैं किसी एक चीज के बजाय किसी दूसरी चीज की तस्वीर खींचने का फैसला करता हूँ, तो भी मैं हकीकत को बदल ही रहा हूँ। बेशक एक तस्वीर झूठ बोल सकती है या गलत इस्तेमाल कर सकती है, लेकिन वह हमेशा से ऐसा कर सकती थी।

Above all, documentary must reflect the problems and realities of the present. It cannot regret the past; it is dangerous to prophesy the future. It can, and does, draw on the past in its use of existing heritages but it only does so to give point to a modern argument. In no sense is documentary a historical reconstruction and attempts to make it so are destined to failure. Rather it is contemporary fact and event expressed in relation to human associations.

यदि प्राचीन काल से इस बात का एक भी संकेत मिल जाता कि यीशु का विवाह हुआ होगा, तो एक इतिहासकार के रूप में, मुझे इस साक्ष्य को पवित्र ग्रंथों (बाइबल) या शुरुआती चर्च की परंपराओं में इस तरह की जानकारी के पूरी तरह से अभाव के मुकाबले तौलना पड़ता। लेकिन ऐसा कोई संकेत नहीं है—ऐतिहासिक स्रोतों में दूर-दूर तक प्रमाण का एक कतरा भी मौजूद नहीं है। यहाँ तक कि दूसरी शताब्दी के उन अजीबोगरीब और संदेस्पद (अपोक्रिफ़ल) गॉसपल्स में भी, जहाँ ऐसे दावों की उम्मीद की जा सकती थी... इस बात का कोई जिक्र नहीं है कि यीशु का कभी विवाह हुआ था।

If there were even one spark of evidence from antiquity that Jesus even may have gotten married, then as a historian, I would have to weigh this evidence against the total absence of such information in either Scripture or the early church traditions. But there is no such spark-not a scintilla of evidence-anywhere in historical sources. Even where one might expect to find such claims in the bizarre, second-century, apocryphal gospels...there is no reference that Jesus ever got married.

यदि सभी साक्ष्यों को सावधानीपूर्वक और निष्पक्षता से परखा जाए, तो ऐतिहासिक शोध के नियमों के अनुसार यह निष्कर्ष निकालना पूरी तरह से न्यायसंगत है कि अरिमेथिया के जोसफ का वह मकबरा, जिसमें यीशु को दफनाया गया था, वास्तव में पहले ईस्टर की सुबह खाली था। और साहित्यिक स्रोतों, शिलालेखों या पुरातत्व में अभी तक ऐसा एक भी प्रमाण नहीं मिला है जो इस बात को झुठला सके।

If all the evidence is weighed carefully and fairly, it is indeed justifiable, according to the canons of historical research, to conclude that the sepulcher of Joseph of Arimathea, in which Jesus was buried, was actually empty on the morning of the first Easter.
