This is a sobering read (no pun intended).

Or, just know the people coming into your house and don't let people in who are high.

“places like Carter County, Tennessee, where children as young as 6 are taught to administer Narcan”

I wonder if it degrades in the heat. I remember we were told not to keep EpiPens in the car because the heat made them ineffective.

That’s not true. It’s pretty easy to get and some states even give it out for free.

DC, MD or VA? If so, where.

Yes if it's so easy, tell us how to get it around here. I'll wait.

NP - after I read the article I googled my county (Arlington) and Narcan. I filled out a form and said it will be in mail in 48-72 hrs
Here is the link I found - https://www.arlingtonva.us/Government/Programs/Health/Arlington-Addiction-Recovery-Initiative/Treatment-Resources/Narcan
