L’objectif
The present analysis describes correlates of nonfatal overdose among a large multistate sample of rural PWUD.
Constatations/points à retenir
As in urban areas, houselessness, Hepatitis C infection, and the use of heroin and fentanyl were significant correlates of overdose. Widespread access to overdose prevention interventions – including fentanyl test strips and naloxone – is critical in this rural context, with particular outreach needed to unhoused populations, people living with Hepatitis C, and people using opioids.
