Because there& #39;s an apocalypse, BC drug users now allowed to access Dilaudid, Dexedrine, benzos... Is it real? Is it #safesupply? How the hell did this happen? New ep of @crackdownpod including an interview with minister @DarcyJudy https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-15-35620391">https://www.patreon.com/posts/epi...

On this episode of @crackdownpod we get a little respite from the overlapping horrors of #COVID2019 & OD crises. @shaverlaura4 finally gets a decent script for Dilaudid & Dexedrine. She hopes it& #39;ll be her exit from contaminated street drugs https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-15-35620391">https://www.patreon.com/posts/epi...

Some are getting it. But BC& #39;s new prescribing regime still needs to be rolled out. If your wired (got SUD), you& #39;re eligible. Some doctors aren& #39;t aware yet. And some seem to refuse. I& #39;ve had reports from BC& #39;s Interior, the Fraser Valley & the DTES of people being turned down.

BC& #39;s new prescribing regime does not include heroin (diacetylmorphine), prescription fentanyl or cocaine. Not yet anyway. For people to leave the contaminated illicit drug supply en mass, we& #39;ll need those. True #safesupply means a straight substitution, not an adjacent trade.

Finally, any reform we win today in #COVID must become permanent. So far, there are no promises on that score. So we& #39;ll have to fight like hell if they try to take it away.
