As some UK politicians seek to end the drug war, it's easy to forget how heroin prescribing existed there for much of the 20th century.

It "just works," says Dr. John Marks—who was "vilified" as political pressure shut down his successful clinics in 1995.

The #warondrugs is a pretext for the violation of sovereignty. It is global violence.

The harm reduction movement must tie our liberation to the struggle against imperialism and colonialism.

'Narcoterrorism' doesn’t describe reality — but it does justify violence.

From drone strikes to mass killings, governments are reviving a new 'war on drugs'.

Seventy years ago, Jonas Salk and his team worked in a lab between a morgue and a darkroom to develop the world’s first successful polio vaccine.

'There is no war. There is no legal basis. There is no excuse.'

On Human Rights Day, the UN Special Rapporteur condemned US killings justified by 'narcoterrorism'.

This narrative puts lives — and the law — at risk.

Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health.

The CDC is compromised. They’re no longer a reliable source of information.

They push anti-vaxx & anti-science grift.

Get your vaccines. Wear a respirator. Clean the air
