I'll be talking about emerging non-overdose medical harms of substance use in about 20 minutes in San Cristobal EFG!

I get to rant about my favorite topics - xylazine harm reduction and the risks of DIY drug chemistry. (Remember methcathinone and krokodil?) #HarmRed22

“We need to understand our history in these movements… know who’s shoulders we stand on” talking about the hx of #harmreduction as one lead by sex workers and black, indigenous, and people of color. #harmred22

In action - @mary_figgatt sharing her amazing work @HarmReduction on estimating the incidence of infection-related mortality among #PWUD #harmred22

Watching @mary_figgatt @nc_usu and @nabarund talk about community based drug checking. #HarmRed22

Good job ⁦@HarmReduction⁩ on the location. Cannot wait for 2024. #harmred22

So grateful for the user and survivor unions out there. I think of my friends who might still be here if they had access to this. The best part of #HarmRed22 has been their work that is changing the nation. @National_usu @nc_usu

Best part of #harmred22 was meeting so many bad ass people in person. So grateful to get to witness and participate in this work alongside people like @NanouTheNomad @MorganGodvin @maiasz @nc_usu @zrsalazar @AdamPalayew @ancoulter13 @Dinahortiz4 @BaylaOstrach @mary_figgatt

Twelve years ago (!!) one of my first introductions to #harmreduction was doing my ⁦MPH⁩ capstone project with Drs Collins & Clifasefi and now I am going to their talk at #harmred22!

There are a lot of people at #HarmRed22 with amazing purple hair and I really miss my purple hair and I think it’s time to go back

We know that health care generally Prohibitionist & hospitals carceral, but we can & must do a better job reducing the harm done to folks who inject drugs who need treatment for serious infections. Giving a HarmRed talk this afternoon! #HarmRed22

Going to try to tweet some pearls from #harmred22 talk about #Section35 (involuntary substance use treatment) program in Massachusetts.

38 states in US have some kind of involuntary commitment program, but MA is the only one that uses correctional settings to hold people!!!!

Another #harmred22 tweet storm this one about RACK study (Rapid Assessment of Consumer Knowledge - brief, mixed methods research approach to gain insight into local challenges and responses to the opioid crisis as shared by people who use drugs) in MA

Before I head to sleep: a #harmred22 tweetatorial on how to help hospitals be less harmful places for people who inject drugs & need treatment for serious infections (endocarditis, osteomyelitis)!

I didn’t manage to get new #harmreduction tshirts here (pls leave recs lol) but this is BEST conference swag ever! Wrapping up what has been wonderful few days at #harmred22 & excited to head home to ⁦@GLFHC⁩ @ apply what I’ve learned. #carrynaloxone #savelives
