Methadone moratorium is a hindrance of healthcare and medical treatment. How do you cap a number of clinics in the midst of drug epidemic. Addiction is a diagnosis. It should be treated as such. Recovery options should be individualized for each patient.

Incredible work @crazynangoldin @meganthedawdler and Mike Quinn! Brava Laura!

“I’m pissed off. I’m sad. But I’m also hopeful too.”
— @papergirlmacy, at a packed Library of Virginia to speak about her new book, Raising Lazarus, about the everyday people fighting on the front lines of the overdose crisis with not nearly enough resources.

A new book on the #opioidcrisis by Beth Macy -- the author of Dopesick -- may surprise you. Macy acknowledges that pain patients were harmed by the backlash against #opioids. But in "Raising Lazarus," she still contends that painkillers caused the crisis. https://t.co/TKRiG2vBjb

Alexis Pleus preaching at yesterday’s @TruthPharm event: the opioid settlement dollars SHOULD ALL go to evidence-based treatment, prevention and harm reduction, not incarceration -first drug war models. Join her and other activists in DC for national Trail of Truth 9/24!

Cutting-edge care to address the overdose crisis shouldn’t be left to volunteers working from their cars. Innovation, on-demand treatment, and true leadership is sorely needed. An excerpt from my new book, #RaisingLazarus, out tomorrow. via @NYTOpinion https://t.co/7IWrluN2PI
