From what I heard, insane morons running NYC are also going to supply vending machines dispensing clean needles and other drug paraphernalia—making the city into an enabler to kill yourself AND OTHERS. So they want to work both sides of the coin and offer naloxone to counteract the evil of their other machines. Sick, sick, sick!

Better yet, Ivermectin and HCQ.

They’ve really gone completely ‘round the bend up there.

I’m so grateful I visited NYC several times when it was a fun and dynamic city.

The left has managed to destroy what was once one of the world’s most vibrant, energetic places.

Will the vending machine take insurance? What’s the deductible...

That was my first thought.

Now you can get a powerful drug like Narcan from a vending machine buy you can’t get a life saving drug like Ivermectin, which has one the best safety records for any drug, from any doctor period.

In places like India it is over the counter for pennies but here you need a prescription signed by God.

The real story not covered: Who has the contract for putting in the machines and how much are they being paid for them?

I grew up in NYC and that was my first thought.

NYC is such a disgraceful, progressive mess right now.

Some people, once addicted, will be a horrendous burden on their family and community until they die from suicide or overdose. The vending machines should dispense hot doses — speed up the process.

“public health vending machines” that would dispense sterile syringes, an anti-overdose medication and other “harm reduction” supplies
= = =

Will they take an EBT card?

They will rob the trucks which carry the naloxone. Why wait for it to be in the machine. The blind leading the blind.

Narcan costs approximately $90.00 per dose.

LOL!!! Maybe they should use armored trucks and armed guards to load the vending machines. Can you imagine that??

Who’s going to put in the credit/debit card for the dying druggie?

Has anyone noticed the complete breakdown in quality of life and basic services in big cities?

Of course. They are all run by Democrats.
