Who is the Santa Ana PD receiving orders from? The city council? The mayor? Hard to see how these are the actions of the “most compassionate city.”

Earlier this week, deputies in Dana Point conducted a car stop on a vehicle that was reported stolen. As they were investigating, one of our deputies came in contact with illicitly manufactured fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid, and immediately became ill.

Check out my poster on neck injection among PWID in LA and SF, CA at #HR2019
Message me for a copy. Neck injection is common, both self and assisted. Efforts to increase safety of this practice is needed; Policy to address this need in OPS and DCRs.

Spent the day @UCIrvine with @Tanaro1 discussing misguided local opposition to @OrangeCountyNEP as part of the regional @APPAM_DC student conference. Tough and thoughtful conversation about the way forward and especially happy to see former @RANDCorporation colleague Dr. Tita

Shout it from the rooftops: you cant overdose (or even experience symptoms) from fentanyl by touching it. This myth just wont die. It stresses out already anxious first responders, delaying lifesaving help. And diverts attn and resources from real solutions. Stamp it out

@LeoBeletsky @OrangeCountyNEP Just a reminder - MORE GENEROUS SYRINGE DISPENSING DOES NOT INCREASE IMPROPER SYRINGE DISPOSAL @alexhkral @DrugAlcoholDep
