“Tackle addiction”

“My administration is committed to doing everything in its power to tackle addiction and put an end to this epidemic of overdoses”, reacted in a statement the President Joe Biden. “As we continue to make progress in defeating the Covid-19 pandemic, we cannot ignore this epidemic of disappearances, which has affected families and communities across the country”, he added.

The US government has announced plans to improve access to naloxone, an antidote capable of countering an overdose. “It’s time to recognize that this crisis seems to be getting worse, we need everyone on the bridge”, added the health secretary, Xavier Becerra, to journalists.
