Years later, @VANDUpeople opened another unsanctioned site - to help people unable to inject themselves and who couldn't be helped at Insite. My work showed how important injection assistance was for people: https://t.co/RkTnOqgdWy
We sex working women need to ensure safe consumption sites established meet our needs, by creating women-run ones here or by staffing SCS' w/trained peer phlebotomists, as this paper describes @VANDUpeople doing at their peer-run unsanctioned site: https:/
This study I'm linking below by Thomas Kerr et all discusses how ppl who need help injecting,(mostly women) are 2x as likely 2 contract HIV or Hep-C, & how older men will have younger women depend on them 2 inject in order to control their street sex w
