- 3838 12y agoyeah i saw one guy overdosed when i was there - some countries are providing police and even addicts family members with Anti-Overdose Drugs seems they can be given as a nasal spray so safer than injections - when people are not medically trained http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/13/nyregion/anti-overdose-drug-becoming-an-everyday-part-of-police-work.html http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/13/nyregion/anti-overdose-dru...
- haakon 12y agoIn Bergen, Norway, they have just started handing out the nasal spray to heroin addicts. We have a huge overdose problem here and I hope this helps.
- 3838 12y agothats encouraging to hear - it seems like huge problems in the US are starting to force a change towards harm reduction, i think it's vermont where it's really out of control and they're changing laws a little bit, for example, if an addict calls an ambulance for someone who overdosed, then they won't be arrested or charged for drug offences
