AAPP opposes the SAMHSA policy change to prohibit the use of federal funds for the purchase of “fentanyl test strips or any other substance test kits intended for use by people using drugs.” Test strips are an essential component of overdose prevention... https://t.co/58gLMiNsCM

The official journal of the Canadian Paediatric Society has just acknowledged that more than 100 of its case reports are fabricated. Incredible reporting from @RetractionWatch: https://t.co/ErcnEw60S6

Leadership takes many forms — This is not an example of that. Self-serving policies will not result in better public health.

@alcohol_review “compared to naltrexone or topiramate, semaglutide was associated with a significantly lower risk of incident AUD diagnosis”…HR 0.25 (0.21-0.30) 👀👀

[Alcohol Review @alcohol_review]

"These findings provide evidence of the potential benefit of semaglutide in alcohol use disorder in real-world populations and call for further randomised clinical trials."

Bills under consideration in FL, WV, & TN would make it easier to charge people who use drugs with a fictitious crime...exposing law enforcement officers to fentanyl. Our own @clairezagorski explores this development with @RyanMarino in @Salon. #WTFentanyl https://t.co/N5tvEQfWyd

[Corey Davis @coreysdavis]

Idaho has just repealed the law that permitted syringe services programs to operate in the state. AFAIK no state has *ever* gone backwards on this incredibly important issue. This is serious, folks. From CA to WV and many places in between, SSPs are under attack.

If you give a speech, in Congress, in support of pending legislation, your remarks will be scrutinized, especially as a celebrity. Those of us who work in this policy space in particular know how damaging stigma is to PWUD. 1/3
