  13. #Dougie doesn't want safe use sites to continue, especially if they're federally funded because what if they proove true that safe use sites reduce #opiod related deaths? Can't have that now. Opiod dependency is a moral weakness and we need to weed those people out of society. :(

    No sorry, misunderstanding - she's been active exposing the Sackler's role in the #opiod crisis in the USA & elsewhere and pressurising cultural institutions to stop taking this tainted money in sponsorship.... so it was more a case of saying that her long campaign has & will inspire others looking at how tainted money is 'washed' via sponsorship deals.....

  22. My wife and I recently attended training on the use of and . We're fortunate that has legal protections for everyday people to help people who might be suffering from an overdose.

    The and especially crisis can affect people in every walk of life, and the more people who are prepared to help, the more people who can live to recover.

  24. Populations in counties w a prescription drug-related opioid epidemic tend to be small, remote, older, mostly white, former farm/factory areas in decline since 1990s. By contrast, heroin and opioid syndemic counties tend to be more urban, connected to interstates, ethnically diverse, and in general more economically secure. County data provided.

  25. Jede neue Entwicklung in der #Opiod -Krise der #USA übertrifft die Vorhergegangene an Schrecklichkeit. Die #Kartelle strecken mittlerweile #Fentanyl mit #Xylazin - mit brutalen Auswirkungen.

    Ein Weg da raus wäre die kontrollierte Abgabe von #Heroin, um darauf Therapien aufzubauen. Dem steht aber die blinde "War against Drugs"-Ideologie entgegen, die extrem wirkungsvoll jede nüchterne Debatte im Keim erstickt und lieber die Suchtkranken der Mafia zum Fraß vorwirft.

  26. "The Justice Department filed a lawsuit on Thursday against AmerisourceBergen, one of the country’s largest pharmaceutical distributors, accusing the company of knowingly distributing opioids that were later resold illegally."

  27. The team at STAT picked this NYT piece on the opiod crisis as one of the top stories of the year.

    Surprising absolutely no one, McKinsey made a buck from it

    'Opana’s manufacturer, the pharmaceutical company Endo, had scaled back promotion of the drug. But months later, the company abruptly changed course, refocusing resources on the drug by assigning more sales representatives.

    The push was known internally as the Sales Force Blitz — and it was conducted with consultants at McKinsey & Company, who had been hired by Endo to provide marketing advice about its chronic-pain medicines and other products.'
