RE: How the War on Drugs is to Blame for the Recent Spike in Heroin Overdoses

in #health7 years ago

What you say is very true.

"...they aren’t sure how much to take..."

No. They can't know how much they are getting, and of what, because being forced to go to criminals to meet their medical needs prevents them from having any way to assess what they are getting.

All illegal drug overdose deaths are basically institutional murder. The more pressure that is put on people to conceal their use, and seek what they need outside of trained and professional assistance, the more harm and death results.

Why aren't overdoses climbing in Mexico? Holland? Switzerland? Why only where prohibition and politicization of medicine is used to sell on black markets, and produce ever greater profits of pharmaceutical companies, the CIA, and savage thugs?

I guess I answered my own question.

Thanks!
