Innovation

  • 🧭 There is no ID. They don't want the clients tracked. No harm reduction service like needle distribution track outcomes of their clients. So no continuum of care. No independent evaluation and no high risk management. No high priority criteria, just to pretend they are saving live - x.com

Harm Reduction Discourse

  • 💊 Multiple sources attribute the reductions to factors like: - Widespread naloxone distribution (reversing overdoses). - Better access to treatment and harm reduction. - Shifts in the illicit drug supply, including reduced fentanyl potency or availability (possibly from supply chain disruptions, precursor crackdowns, or market saturation). - x.com
  • 💬 Having to explain Realpolitik to triangulating hardheads is also exhausting. Politics is not a simple math equation. - bsky.app
