Thank you.
In summary, there is an unprecedented crisis which is linked to contaminated illicit drugs. These give rise to overdoses and mortality, as we've seen recently.
Dr. Goyer, you said we had to realize that those who die are the most vulnerable. You mentioned that we needed to work on the social determinants of health, because these are structural vulnerabilities. That struck me. We also need to fight against illicit markets. Personally, I don't think we're doing enough on that front.
According to the current model, we seem to want the individual to go to the resource. However, if there is indeed an unprecedented public health crisis and people are dying, to intervene on the social front, we need to go to the front, where the people are, and multiply comprehensive interventions on the ground. Multidisciplinary teams need to go where the problems are. We can't wait for people to show up at a doctor's office for treatment.
What do you think?
