L’objectif
We sought to synthesize qualitative studies of social-structural factors influencing incidence and treatment of injecting-related infections.
Constatations/points à retenir
Injecting-related bacterial and fungal infections are shaped by modifiable social-structural factors, including poor quality unregulated drugs, criminalization and policing enforcement, insufficient housing, limited harm reduction services, and harmful health care practices. People who inject drugs navigate these barriers while attempting to protect themselves and their community.
