The drug harm reduction backlash
Manage episode 430481236 series 2455762
Vincent Lam is a Canadian addictions doctor and award-winning author who's written a couple of op-eds in the Globe and Mail on the opioid crisis in recent months, and his most recent novel, On The Ravine, is about the subject.
Over 44 thousand people in Canada have died since 2016. Some see safer supply, or the prescription of pharmaceutical-grade opioids to drug users, and supervised consumption sites as crucial parts of curbing this crisis.
Lam talks to host Jayme Poisson about the backlash to those measures, and what he thinks is missing from the conversation about it.
