When talking about the Opioid Epidemic in the US, please be careful not to invalidate or demonize pain sufferers in the process.

A lot of talk about the Opioid Epidemic turns into "Well Purdue Pharma convinced doctors that pain is serious and that pain needs to be treated! Before that we knew that a little pain is good for you! Maybe sometimes a patient doesn't actually need treatment for pain!"

Pain is serious. Whether it's from an injury, a surgery, or a chronic condition, it's serious. It's got nothing to do with opioids. You don't have to be a pill-pusher to understand that.

Pain sufferers must be given options to treat their pain, and pain sufferers shouldn't have to choose between suffering in silence or getting addicted to opioids.

Pain management and treatment needs to be taken seriously by the medical field, completely separate from the opioid debate. There needs to be more research into non-addictive substances for pain relief, and better long-term care and counseling in the case where a patient is prescribed an addictive substance.

[And while we're at it, addicts shouldn't be demonized either.]

Program led by St. Michael’s Hospital to dispense free HIV self-testing kits, harm reduction, sexual health supplies

“Machines that dispense free self-testing kits for HIV and COVID-19, naloxone kits, new needles, condoms and other essential harm reduction and sexual health supplies will soon appear in communities across Canada.

The ‘smart’ machines, called Our Healthbox, work like a vending machine, and also provide health information and a service directory for people to find much-needed health care and supports in their community. The initiative, led by researchers at St. Michael’s Hospital, a site of Unity Health Toronto, will launch in four communities in New Brunswick on Jan. 23, with plans to launch up to 50 machines across Canada in 2023. The goal is to install 100 machines over the next three years, and to evaluate how well they support people with their health needs...

Providing access to harm reduction and health care supplies for free to people in spaces they frequent is a strategy experts consider as key to reaching people who are underserved and who have barriers to accessing testing, harm reduction materials, treatment, care and prevention due to racism, homophobia, stigma and discrimination.

“Everyone in Canada deserves to have what they need, when they need it, to take care of their health. But we know that this is not the case, and so we are doing everything we can to bridge that gap in ways that work for each person in their community,” said Dr. Sean B. Rourke...

Our Healthbox is the latest phase of work led by Rourke to connect those with complex health and social circumstances to testing, treatment and prevention. In 2019, Rourke spearheaded a cross-Canada clinical trial which evaluated and proved the accuracy of HIV-self tests – Health Canada approved the tests for use in November 2020 based on the results of the trial. In June 2022, Rourke launched the I’m Ready research program, distributing 10,000 free HIV self-testing kits across Canada to reach people who are undiagnosed and get them connected to care, with the goal of identifying the factors that affect access to testing and care.

Rourke and his team will work with local community-based organizations, public health authorities, and health centres to host and maintain the Our Healthbox program.”

Droll thing life is - that mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. The most you can hope from it is some knowledge of yourself--that comes too late--a crop of unextinguishable regrets. I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamour, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid scepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary. If such is the form of ultimate wisdom, then life is a greater riddle than some of us think it to be. I was within a hair's-breadth of the last opportunity for pronouncement, and I found with humiliation that probably I would have nothing to say.

Kupić czy nie? Raczej tak!

Siemanko! Muszę zapłacić 89.90 zł na rzecz NEW YORKER z tytułu naprawy szkody, ale nie mam takiej sumy na koncie. Mam tylko 29 zł. Wyślę im 6 zł, aby nie było przypału u kuratorki, a 22.98 zł wydam na 2 paczki thioco. Kuratorce powiem, że więcej kasy nie miałem i po wypłacie wyślę resztę. Tak, wiem że miałem kupić kodę dopiero po wypłacie, ale myślałem, że totalnie nie mam nic na koncie, a tutaj proszę, akurat na dwie paczuchy! Zastanawiam się jeszcze czy kupić po robocie thiokoszoki, czy zostawić ten hajs do wypłaty "w razie w" ale raczej niestety (albo stety hah) kupię kodziuchne. Wszak będę czekał w wałbrzychu ok. godziny na autobus powrotny do domu, a apteki w których czekają zamówione paczki będą tak blisko mnie, więc chyba przez te okoliczności nie wytrzymam. No cóż...

Buziaki 😗
