Provocative work by Sugarman Award winner ⁦@johncmessinger⁩ on the outcomes of pts involuntarily committed for SUD in MA. Rates of commitment way up- but 100% relapse. Evaluation of the program and reimagining it (including requiring effective treatment) is needed.

Expecting patients with alcohol-associated liver disease to avoid relapse entirely is unrealistic, writes @johncmessinger. Instead, physicians should use the principles of harm reduction as guidance, decreasing the likelihood that relapses become fatal. https://t.co/UP8FdcSheU

In #Boston, #InvoluntaryCommitment “has been weaponized to clear encampments of people living on the streets,” write @JohnCMessinger and Jacqueline Garza. It’s not a viable solution. In the end, many end up right where they started. https://t.co/RAr6LDNFrj

“It's tempting to see forced treatment as in the best interest of everyone involved—but … we’ve rarely seen involuntary commitment achieve good outcomes for patients,” say @JohnCMessinger and Jacqueline Garza. https://t.co/RAr6LDNFrj

@hollykhach Congratulations! Are you still going to be in leadership for Peabody?

New research from the lab on "The Other Infodemic: Media Misinformation about Involuntary Commitment for Substance Use” was published today in @JAM_ASAM by Sunyou Kang, @mccreedy_katie, @johncmessinger, @rahulbot, and @LeoBeletsky: https://t.co/vByDuFQtbK

With cases of alcohol-associated #LiverDisease on the rise, writes @johncmessinger, physicians should revisit the current “overly restrictive criteria” to ensure they’re not discriminating against patients with less financial and social capital. https://t.co/UP8FdcSheU

🚨NEW PERSPECTIVE🚨

X'ing the X waiver was necessary, but *not* sufficient

More must be done to open up access to lifesaving medication and harm reduction services. And fast

Today we announced we will be opening the country's first state-regulated overdose prevention center in 2024. This is the result of many years of hard work by so many on our staff and in the state. We're ready to make history and save more lives. 💜Read:

Was great chatting with Samantha Perfas at the Harvard Gazette about some of my ideas regarding liver transplantation for patients with alcohol use disorder. I really hope to keep this conversation going as I think there is a lot we can do better! https://t.co/oIfrKbGZt6
