so a really good think that the trump admin is shuttering the program that gave FIRST RESPONDERS narcan to save lives.
My kid is a firefighter--they use this literally every day.

1). How do we actually know now that we've killed weekly mortality/morbidity reporting?
2). This is the result of Biden policies that provide treatment and narcan. What do you think will happen when trump cuts every positive social service support we provide?
