#MANILA – When #RodrigoDuterte was running for president eight years ago, he vowed to order the #police and the #military to find #DrugUsers and #DrugTraffickers to kill them. He said he would offer them immunity. In the months after, #PoliceOfficers and #Vigilantes mercilessly gunned down tens of thousands of people in #SummaryExecutions.

Years later, #Philippines reckons with #Duterte’s brutal #DrugWar

Global News BC: Parents, politicians call for care, compassion on 7th anniversary of B.C. overdose crisis https://globalnews.ca/news/9626011/bc-overdose-crisis-7th-anniversary-richmond/ #globalnews #britishcolumbia #news #BCoverdosecrisisanniversary #mentalhealthandaddictions #bctoxicdrugcrisis #BCoverdosecrisis #Toxicdrugdeaths #toxicdrugsupply #OpioidCrisis #Drugusers #Fentanyl #Naloxone #Health

~LET'S TALK ABOUT FENTANYL ~
You can not die from touching, looking, or being near it. Fentanyl is only dangerous if inhaled or ingested.
*Most street drugs have fentanyl in them now*

No one is handing it out for free. Drug dealing is a business

It is NOT in your weed.
no one is sprinkling fentanyl onto your blunts, and even if they did it burns up before you could smoke it.

Please carry naloxone. Start slow. Never use alone if you can help it.

Two of my proudest #achievements were actually relatively small.

I worked with the students union at a local university to give student #drugusers free access to drug testing kits. This allowed them to test the content and purity of drugs they had bought and intended to take.

The other is the drug market profile I created that same year, looking at the diversion of prescription drugs into clandestine markets.

Wednesday before whatchamacallit is one of the heaviest drinking/drug using days of the year. So Tuesday 4-5:30PM EST, check out a narcan training!
