  5. Added #Narcan (naloxone) and Fentanyl Test Strips to First Aid Kit.

    Seems I need them in #SantaCruz (I was aware, but hadn't *had* to deal yet...changed yesterday).

    Received half case (12)...one in TechBag (with my personal stash of BandAids/Antibiotic Ointment/Wipes/Tape/Gauze) and been playing "Narcan Fairy" (Elves are Fey, it works I guess) with the rest to local businesses I frequent that have good #FirstAid Kits near the "Narcotic Communities".

    Stopped OD, yay me. *Head Desk*

  6. #Trump Administration awarded a grant to Lexington, KY in October 2025...and rescinded it yesterday. Read the details - people will die because of this, and these #Republicans don't care. #Narcan #opioid

  7. Finished the updated #Narcan training over at EndOverdose.net

    Did you know #Opioid #overdose

    has killed >1M Americans since 1999 and >100k of those were in 2023?

    is the leading cause of death for Americans 18-45?

    is so easy to identify that my 7yo can do it?

    Did you know that inter-nasal Narcan can be administered by a 7yo as well?

    It's that EASY to stop an overdose.

    And they have a "NarCats" training game too!

    Narcan is free+shipping!

  8. PERRY: Mything the point. Science, not wishing, saves the lives of drug addicts

    ‘Safe injection sites and making naloxone easily available do not promote drug use or crime around the machines or clinics. They prevent death, and living people can and do kick their addictions. Dead ones don’t’

  10. I was talking with my son Tom about the danger of potential contamination of drugs with opiates and he mentioned Carfentanil as something that might not be treatable by naloxone/Narcan. That didn't make sense to me given how these drugs act on the body and how Narcan blocks that action, so I looked it up.

    Carfentanil is an analog of Fentanyl and is treatable with Narcan. You can read more about it here: vdh.virginia.gov/content/uploa

    "And, just in time, the ex-Heroin addict #RFKJr has defunded a Federal #Narcan program that has saved the lives of overdose victims

    Ensuring that the coming #MAGA economic downturn will kill people's finances, and then literally kill them."

    Even more absurd when you consider that the whole rationale for "emergency powers" that justify #tariffs is that other countries are not doing enough to stop #fentanyl coming into the US.

    To #Trump et al... "What you do thunders so loudly that I cannot hear what you say." - Emerson

  12. So with #US port activity down, we are potentially entering a #recession this summer due to #Trump #tariff economic stupidity

    Joblessness means drug use will increase

    And, just in time, the ex-Heroin addict #RFKJr has defunded a Federal #Narcan program that has saved the lives of overdose victims

    Ensuring that the coming #MAGA economic downturn will kill people's finances, and then literally kill them

  13. Can anyone suggest a *good* training video on using narcan to help others who are having an opioid crisis? I watched a video when I started carrying it but it was basically a PowerPoint. Anything more educational & engaging out there? #narcan
