“In recent years, we have seen synthetic opioids, such as illicitly manufactured fentanyl, drive many overdose deaths with cocaine- and methamphetamine-related deaths also increasing at alarming rates.”

“As a Nation, we need a strong response to America’s overdose epidemic and an investment in prevention, #harmreduction, treatment and recovery services, as well as strategies to reduce the supply of illicit drugs.”
“… by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim August 29 through September 4, 2021, as Overdose Awareness Week.”
I’ll do my best to educate on Twitter about drug overdoses in #Florida and the rest of America throughout the week to raise awareness. Feel free to share what I post to spread awareness too. This issue doesn’t get enough attention and this is a good time to change that.
I invite discussions, debate, questions, etc. from my Twitter friends… not that I’m specifically an expert on the political, social, or medical aspect of drug use, but I’m sure we can find answers from those that are. Let’s the week of #OverdoseAwarenessDay started!
