    Emt for the past like 16 years, here.

    The answer is no.

    Everyone gets handed out nasal narcan, it’s easy to administer, you can buy it at target, pretty much all police, ems, and fire carry some, and after the past 5 years most addicts know what it is and how it’s used. Tons of ems districts will leave addicts that overdosed with doses of narcan to keep with family/friends for when they do it again. That way they get saved without 911 even getting called half the time, since most addicts don’t want to have cops show up and get in trouble.

    It’s not the weed. It’s just narcan and awareness.
