What are the
impacts, both negative and positive for society, of
drug treatment for opioid overdose and addiction? Is
that a revolution in treatment or a technological
fix that does not address the real problems?
Consider the different impacts on different parts of
society, both up to this point and in the future.
Where should we prioritize spending resources to
prevent harm to society? Your points must be based
on specific evidence and the views of experts, not
just speculation. Make sure you focus on what
is the proper role of medications and other
technology in solving this social problem, not more
just on the problem. |
