Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Will EJ DiMera Fall Victim to His Own Tainted Drug Cover-Up?
A dangerous cover-up may be coming back to haunt EJ DiMera in the most lethal way possible. According to Days of Our Lives spoilers, EJ has suddenly come down with a bout of the flu, prompting his doctor to prescribe medication for his recovery. However, with lethal batches of tainted Coriseal still lingering throughout Salem, questions are mounting over whether EJ could unknowingly find himself exposed to toxic drugs and arsenic poisoning.
EJ DiMera’s Bout with the Flu and the Cover-Up Threat
EJ currently finds himself under the weather, leading his physician to call in a prescription to treat his symptoms. While a routine flu diagnosis seems harmless on the surface, daytime spoilers indicate that more people in Salem are slated to die from Coriseal exposure.
The threat hits remarkably close to home for EJ. He was recently confronted by Devlin St. John, the corrupt water inspector who attempted to blackmail EJ for money. EJ is well aware of the tainted Coriseal pills and the fact that they were dumped on Smith Island.
When Holly Jonas was exposed to arsenic from the well on Smith Island, she nearly lost her life. Instead of coming clean, EJ took ruthless steps to cover up the crisis, ensuring that DiMera Pharmaceuticals would avoid taking the blame for what happened to Holly or anyone else on the island. While EJ made sure Holly received medical help after discovering the contamination, he also framed her as a drug user to protect his family’s corporate empire. Now, fans are left to wonder if EJ himself will end up exposed to the very drugs he worked so hard to hide.
Tainted Coriseal Drugs Remain a Danger in Salem
The threat of contamination is far from over. Spoilers suggest that tainted drugs remain in circulation across Salem, evidenced by a hospital patient who died not too long ago. Furthermore, the corrupt water inspector confirmed that many others are bound to get sick as well.
This ongoing threat raises disturbing possibilities for EJ’s health. Could he somehow end up consuming contaminated water, or could a secretive adversary ensure he receives tainted drugs under the guise of flu medication to eliminate him permanently?
Adding to the mystery, EJ believes he is the true heir to Stefano DiMera, but hints suggest he is about to suffer major issues with his mind. While this mental deterioration could be the result of deliberate brainwashing, it might also be a symptom of the medication he has been given for his flu. It remains possible that EJ has already been exposed to arsenic and was simply misdiagnosed with a standard virus.
Will EJ Get a Taste of His Own Poison?
Poetic justice could soon catch up with the DiMera titan. It would be a stark twist of fate if someone decided to give EJ a taste of his own medicine by utilizing the contaminated supplies to remove him from the board.
Days of Our Lives viewers know that a mysterious figure is actively working behind the scenes to execute Stefano’s ultimate plans. If this unknown mastermind decides that EJ is standing in the way, they could easily exploit his current illness to poison him with the tainted pharmaceuticals produced by his own company.
No one knows the identity of this shadowy operative or why they are closely monitoring the individuals named in Stefano’s will. With lethal pills floating around Salem and a secret enemy watching his every move, EJ could soon find himself in the fight of his life.
Do you think EJ is being targeted with tainted drugs, or is his declining health the result of a misdiagnosed exposure to arsenic? Share your thoughts below!
