The wonderful @AstonLiz discussing the role of police in a public health approach to drugs. Legal complexities are baffling, & there are so many moving parts (multi-stakeholder risk minimisation, harm reduction, drug checking, drug law enforcement). @scleph @TheSIPR @GLEPHAssoc

The COVID-19 spotlight revealed the need to nurture upstream determinants of individual and societal well-being while we address specific challenges. Do you have a program that does that: https://t.co/nEkaLpB0VL @LEPH2022 @NossalInstitute #MOI2022 @police_health @_PHAA_ @scleph

Fascinating presentation from @KeithNHumphreys at #DRNSconf22 A key lesson he shared was, “evidence alone never carries the day, [but] when values and politics create possibilities, evidence is critical for taking maximal advantage of them”.

Good to see police in Wales promoting a #publichealth approach to #drugs "If we keep doing things in the way that we have for the last 50 years... we will achieve the same results and deaths will continue to rise." @RichardWLewis https://t.co/FiBdMza9Rw #stopthedeaths

Drug-related deaths "will continue to rise" unless a different approach is taken, says Richard Lewis.

Naloxone nasal spray to reverse near fatal drug overdose is a public health approach to policing, it saves lives and promotes resilience when working in partnership @PoliceScotland and @Scotambservice. @TheSIPR @scleph @EdinburghNapier @ENUHealthSocial @SDFnews @Scottish_ddtf
