Scoping review to identify key concepts, strategies and gaps in evidence with respect to the provision of safe supply during pandemics and other emergencies.

Constatations/points à retenir

A scoping review of the academic and grey literature about the facilitators and barriers to providing safe supply during pandemics and other large-scale emergency conditions. Themes identified: from the literature: 7 barriers and 6 facilitators; from People Who Use Drugs: 5 barriers. Further analysis planned. Overall, published scientific evidence about the provision of safe supply in the context of emergencies is fairly limited. Presents arguments about how using lack of evidence about safe supply to not/delay offering it is problematic
