🚨 Something huge happened today. 🚨 @US_FDA @DrCaliff_FDA listened to harm reduction programs and made it infinitely easier to purchase #naloxone in bulk. With 100,000+ overdose deaths each year, we need BIG solutions. w/@RemedyAlliance @ejwheeler9 @coreysdavis 🧵 1/26

Heading to a meeting with our binders of data about syringe access, overdose prevention sites, fentanyl, and safe supply. They always ask, do we have data? Uhhhh, fuck yeah we do.

Every single day people die because naloxone is not available OTC. Every. Single. Day.

Do you or someone you know have excess or recently expired naloxone? You do? Well you should contact the OSNN Naloxone Buyer's Club & get that naloxone into the hands of people who use drugs. This International Overdose Awareness Day, don't ditch it. Donate it. #IOAD21 #NEEDNLX

@DrSarahWakeman Every state needs to ensure legalization of drug checking supplies and distribute widely.

@JessLynnMoreno @DrKimSue Our PDMP in California provides a warning based on morphine equivalents, with buprenorphine at a factor of something like 1 to 32! Someone taking 16 mg of buprenorphine (ie a typical dose) is flagged for high morphine equivalents daily. 🤦🏻‍♂️

NEW! #AnatomyofCapitolAttack TURN SOUND ON! I submit this video as evidence in the Impeachment of Donald Trump. Donald Trump engaged in "violent, deadly and seditious acts" which betrayed his trust as President and endangered the security of the United States.

Having a difficult time putting into words the feeling I had when I left the hospital after doing chest compressions on a coding young person who lost their fight with COVID, to see a normal packed Friday night at bars and restaurants...
