Nasal Naloxone is easy to use and free in Washington. The death of a friend, family member, or associate, or a near death experience does not ‘teach’ a person who uses drugs a ‘lesson’. In fact, increased psychological distress or trauma is more likely to increase substance use.

Trump and Elon Musk are pretending people are dead so they can kick more Americans off Social Security and claw back hard-earned benefits. All so Republicans can pass a giant tax break for their billionaire buddies. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...
