If Trump really cared about the opioid
problem of drugs in America killing citizens, then he would use our tax dollars
on Naloxone Rescue Kits giving the kits out
to everyone for free just like Regan gave out free government cheese. Naloxone
can cost as little as five cents a dose to
produce so don’t go complaining about the cost of government handouts again.
The only problem Mexico and America has with each other is the booming business
of drugs. They have it and we will buy it. And half of Americans are hooked on
the expensive habit of drug use. Trump could at least be giving families a dose
of hope to save the addicted lives of their loved ones.
Almost a half century ago in 1971
emergency rooms started reversing opioid overdoses using the medicine Naloxone.
Now it is easier to get and is a generic solution to an emergency. Even our
Surgeon General came out with an advisory calling on more Americans to carry
Naloxone just in case. It can revive old people who took too many pain killers,
bartenders can use it for folks who pass out from too much alcohol consumption,
folks with addicted kids and kids who have addicted parents need to kave this
stuff at the ready.
The problem is that it can be complicated
to get Naloxone for everyone to use. Why
Donald Trump (who just spent his time pouting about his stupid wall and then
going golfing again at his tax paid trips to his privately owned and profited
from golf resort palace) isn’t making
this stuff available and accessible to us all? Naloxone is a miracle drug in
hospitals. You can’t get high on it, you can’t overdose on it and you can just
save a life with it. It is amazing! It literally can bring folks back from the
brink of death quickly.
Not much in life or medicine can
do what Naloxone can do. You just spray the stuff up a passed out person’s nose
and within seconds they are gasping for a revived air. In Salt Lake City Police
and firefighters have Naloxone with them all the time and they have to use it a lot and are saving lives since most
of their calls are not fire related or police related but medical. In
Conservative Utah they average a opioid death every day and emergency
responders give out dosages of Naloxone at least twice per day. Tax payers would
be saving a lot of money on emergency responding if we all had Naloxone
available to us all like we can buy Band-Aids .
The drug doesn’t fix addiction
but it does give someone a second chance at life. At least all states have finally made it legal
for anyone to carry Naloxone. It can also be used in an emergency for a heart
attack, diabetes passing out and a stroke just to quickly revive someone. Hospitals
give it out for free and they can only purchase it through Grant money.
WHY????? Our government with our tax dollars should be providing this life
saving revival drug FOR FREE. Cancer and drug addiction are chronic relapsing conditions
and we need an emergency kit to deal with these common problems in our society.
If America is going to continue to waste their money on just to get high drugs
from Mexico then America should also be investing in low cost medicine to
revive us all.
