Text reads: "Fatal drug overdoses more common among lower-income and unemployed Canadians: IWH study." An arrow indicates to click through to the next image.
Text reads: "Compared to those with the highest income, overdose deaths among those with the lowest income were 7 times higher for women and five times higher for men." A bar graph shows overdose rates for men and women along 5 groups of income from lowest to highest. It depicts the rate of overdose deaths, by income, per 100,000 people over a year. The bars are highest for the lowest income group, and decline on a gradient to the highest income group.
Text reads: "Compared to those working full-time hours, overdose deaths among those wo were unemployed were 6 times higher for women and four times higher for men." A bar graph shows overdose rates for men and women along 5 groups of employment: not in the labor force, unemployed, part-time, full-time, and long hours (over 48 per week). It depicts the rate of overdose deaths, by income, per 100,000 people over a year. The bars are highest for those not in the labor force, and decline on a gradient to the those with full-time hours.
Text reads: "Compared to those working full-time hours, overdose deaths among those wo were out of the labor force were 10 times higher for women and six times higher for men." A bar graph shows overdose rates for men and women along 5 groups of employment: not in the labor force, unemployed, part-time, full-time, and long hours (over 48 per week). It depicts the rate of overdose deaths, by income, per 100,000 people over a year. The bars are highest for those not in the labor force, and decline on a gradient to the those with full-time hours.
A new IWH study looked at how sociodemographic factors measured by the Canadian census were linked with drug #overdose deaths. The researchers found that deaths were highest among those with the lowest income, and those who were not working or #unemployed.

The trump administration's approach to our drug and overdose epidemic of blowing up fishing boats, threatening to invade Mexico, and kidnapping dictators, has NO impact. It will make the situation worse.

Today I will attend the funeral of a friend I grew up with, only 54. A really good person who also just survived cancer.
Illegal drugs kill, and they do not discriminate. I've lost too many younger friends the last few years due to #overdose. It's very sad and very frustrating to watch.
Knowing the signs of an overdose and how to respond can save a life.
Take a moment to learn what to look for and what steps to take in an emergency. Explore SAMHSA’s Overdose Prevention and Response Toolkit for more information: library.samhsa.gov/.../overdose...

Christopher Columbus discovered #America, the peak of overshoot & #overdose, due to #Eratosthenes denial. This amuses me deeply.

Innovative approach by #VirginiaTech @vtengineering.bsky.social researchers: #vaccines that generate #antibodies to block #opioids from crossing the blood–brain barrier could open a new frontier in #addiction treatment and #overdose prevention. www.linkedin.com/posts/drmelv...
“Patienthood” grants individuals legitimacy as recipients of care, without conditions. Stigma and societal narratives of self-blame can cause institutions to approach #addiction treatment as discretionary rather than standard medical care. #opioids #overdose

Dark gray maze-like pattern fills black background. Large font at top left reads, "We miss our loved ones whose lives were stolen by overdose. They should be here." The words, "They should be here" are in purple, the rest are in white. Smaller white text below reads, "Black Balloon Day and every day, they are on our minds and in our hearts." Below this is a border of white stencil-like illustrations of various flowers at different heights. NHRC 30th anniversary logo in bottom right corner.
🧵Each of the people we've lost to #Overdose were so loved, & are loved still. We miss them. As we hold their memories close, we hold everyone they left behind in our hearts, too. Your grief matters and so do you. We hope our grieving overdose zine brings you some...
