  6. The deal overseen by US Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane would require members of the #Sackler family who own the company to contribute up to $7 billion & give up ownership. The new agreement replaces one #SCOTUS rejected last year, finding it would have improperly protected members of the family against future lawsuits. The judge said he would explain his decision in a hearing Tuesday.

  7. Delaware’s opioid fund differs from any other state

    "The state has already awarded $15 million of its expected $250 million in an effort to save lives in a state that ranked fourth in the nation in per-capita overdose deaths in 2022. Last year, 527 people died from drug overdoses – a 2% decrease from the prior year.

    But while other states left funding questions to individual jurisdictions – including counties, cities and even small towns – Delaware pooled all of its funding together in a statewide program, hoping to maximize its effect in a small state."

  8. Ever since I called 911 for a stranger ODing on #opiods a few weeks back, I've been reaching out to organizations on Maryland's list of free #narcan distributors.

    Unfortunately, only one has responded, and only to point me back to the list.

    Today I finally just bought some #naloxone at a nearby pharmacy. I can afford the $35, but I worry that barriers like this make naloxone inaccessible to those who can't.

  9. @drajpcarroll ok by BCBS places the same pre-authorization hurtles on meds as well as huge delays up to a month before filling prescriptions, especially those that still hold a patent aka name brand meds, and boosts the costs to patient +co pay out of pocket. + they have created supply restrictions for non #opiods now bracketed as such. So #pain is more #painful All medical insurance is a racket.

  10. #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. :(

  11. Yes. Rates of #mentalhealth problems have continually increased among young people over the past 15 years, regardless of how you measure it: In 2021, 42% of U.S. #highschool students reported “persistent feelings of #sadness or #hopelessness,” up from 28% in 2011. The increase was especially dramatic among #girls. yourlocalepidemiologist.substa #socialmedia #teens #violence #socialpressures #politics #opiods #ClimateCrisis #racialinequity

  12. Nonmarital birth rates increased in communities that experienced both a rise opioid overdose deaths and higher prescription drug use rates reflecting social disruptions primarily affecting unmarried women.
