Commentary on Bonn et all 2020
Findings/Key points
About: counters arguments made for safer supply by using the argument that increased opioid prescribing is what caused the addiction problem and that safer supply is "Ill advised". Particularly concerned with unsupervised aspect of SOS, and believes that what is needed is increased access to SCS and treatment. Contribution: nothing new - it is a rehash of outdated arguments that depend on ideas of PWUD as untrustworthy and unable to manage their substance use.
