Read it and Weep thing that I spotted

[ShadowHeart]

I was watching it in metal gear dash mode and look what I found. Kind of cool.

I guess Twilight or Zecora lent the book to the hospital. Not sure why the hospital would have it in the first place. 

[HerpyDooves]

What exactly is the book?

[Lorelai]

What exactly is the book?

It's the book that had the cure for poison joke in Bridle Gossip, I think.

[ShadowHeart]

yep, thought you guys would know 

[Zygrograxgra]

Makes sense for there to be more than one copy of each book though.
Maybe they've been using it the whole time for various remedies?

[Book Smarts]

Twilight could've gave every medical institute a copy just to be safe

I doubt that, with a book with such information, only one or two copies would exist.

Just chalk it up as a Freeze Frame Bonus. Lots of shows have them. This one just likes to exercise it a lot - especially since it's made in Flash.

[Lord of Madness]

well ether way I find this both cool and funny

[The Wandering Magus]

what does "horse's <unreadable>" refer to, in the upper-right corner?

Not really.
If it was I think Twilight would have had it during the episode.She would have also knew that it was only the poison joke instead of a curse.

Seeing how books are so neatly made in hard cover, it's easy to see that Equestria does have a form of printing press

[The Wandering Magus]

maybe Twilight convinced Zecora to have it mass-distributed after the Poison Joke incident.

and they had printing presses canonically.  the newspaper thingy.

Now I wonder how often ponies are around poison joke. I mean its only in the Everfree and about 99% of ponies are too afraid to go there.

[The Wandering Magus]

well, if it's a weed it could potentially get spread on accident into fields and such.  Regardless, I'm sure the doctors have notes on Manticore antivenom regardless of how rare cases are, because there will always be those one or two cases where you absolutely need it no matter how unlikely an attack is.  Similarly, having a guide on Poison Joke would help ponies on whom the "joke" is life-threatening (water-loving pony getting drowned, for instance)

[Book Smarts]

What if the monsters like the cockatrice, were actually unwary travelers who touched poison joke?

[The Wandering Magus]

maybe that's how Fluttershy- *disappeared by anti-spoilers protesters*
