1/“Criminalizing ppl who use drugs doesn’t just fail to make [them] safer & healthier, it makes them sicker & more likely to overdose in the shadows.” Read my new @Salon op-ed w/ @Louise_Arbour & Dr. Geoff Gallop of @globalcdp on #HarmReduction strategies salon.com/2019/10/19/its…
@Salon @louise_arbour @globalcdp 2/ While the US has been fighting a failed war on drugs, much of the rest of the world has chosen a different path – one grounded in public health responses over criminalization.
@Salon @louise_arbour @globalcdp 3/ “It is time for all nations to…embrace a new global vision for drug policy based on principles of harm reduction and respect of fundamental human rights, including the right to health care.” @globalcdp @UNITE_MPNetwork @SICAD_Portugal @DPA_NY
