Why are NY lawmakers stopping first responders from fighting fentanyl?
Opinion by Post Editorial Board • 11h


NYC’s latest advice to combat fentanyl crisis is for everyone to carry Narcan: ‘A wave of the white flag’
 
Good news: Fentanyl overdose “revival” drugs are saving lives across the country.

Bad news: Opioid-related OD deaths are soaring in New York (from 18 in 1999 to 4,950 in 2022) and it often takes four or five doses of Narcan to revive fentanyl victims — yet the state refuses to get behind better, fentanyl-specific drugs.

Why? Policy is dominated not by true public-health specialists, but by harm-reduction ideologues who worry that the other “rescue” drugs have unpleasant side effects for heroine addicts.

Seriously.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
