NYC Urges Residents to Carry Life-Saving Meds for Drug Users
America’s Largest Cities Under Joe Biden’s Dumpster-Fire Presidency
Under Joe Biden’s dumpster-fire presidency, America’s largest cities, many of them run by Democrats, have devolved into filthy, crime-infested drug dens that endanger public safety.
In the latest tragic illustration, the New York City Department of Health issued an advisory urging all New Yorkers to carry Naloxone — a medicine that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose — in response to historic drug fatalities.
“This crisis is killing a New Yorker every three hours and is impacting every individual and family in our city and in our nation,” Health Commissioner Dr. Ashwin Vasan said.
“Overdose deaths increased by 12 percent from 2021 to 2022, and Fentanyl — an opioid 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine — was detected in 81 percent of drug overdose deaths in New York City,” the Health Department said.
To stem this alarming epidemic, the agency urged all New Yorkers to carry Naloxone with them.

Most of the fentanyl flooding America’s streets comes through our unsecured southern border, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy pointed out.
Most fentanyl starts in China and comes through our southern border, killing 300 Americans a day—that’s like an airliner crashing day after day after day.

In 2022, drug fatalities were the highest among the black and Hispanic population.
“Black and Latino New Yorkers had the highest rates of overdose death and the largest increases in rate from 2021 to 2022,” the agency said.
“Black New Yorkers between the ages of 55 and 84 had the highest rate of overdose death compared to black New Yorkers in other age groups, and New Yorkers of any age.”
These sobering statistics show that Democrats’ lax immigration policies and drug protocols are literally killing their constituents.
In June, NYC officials unveiled a street vending machine that caters to drug addicts by offering free crack pipes.

Sadly, New York mirrors the tragic deterioration of other Democrat-controlled cities, including Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Seattle, and San Francisco, where drug overdoses have skyrocketed due to toxic left-wing policies.

Despite this shocking crisis ravaging the nation, Democrats continue to support mass illegal immigration and sending billions of U.S. tax dollars to Ukraine. Why?

How has the influx of fentanyl into America’s largest cities worsened the drug crisis, and what measures need to be taken to address this issue
America’s Largest Cities Under Joe Biden’s Dumpster-Fire Presidency
Since taking office, Joe Biden’s presidency has been marred by numerous challenges and controversies, especially when it comes to the state of America’s largest cities. Many of these cities, which are predominantly run by Democratic officials, have experienced a significant decline, with a rise in crime, drug addiction, and public safety concerns.
A tragic illustration of this downward spiral can be seen in New York City, where the Department of Health has recently issued an advisory urging all residents to carry Naloxone, a medicine that can rapidly reverse an opioid overdose. This move comes in response to an alarming increase in drug fatalities in the city.
“This crisis is killing a New Yorker every three hours and is impacting every individual and family in our city and in our nation,” said Health Commissioner Dr. Ashwin Vasan. The overdose deaths have increased by 12 percent from 2021 to 2022, with Fentanyl, an opioid 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine, being detected in 81 percent of drug overdose deaths in New York City, according to the Health Department.
To combat this alarming epidemic, the Health Department is urging all New Yorkers to carry Naloxone with them. The gravity of the situation is highlighted by the fact that the city is calling on all residents to carry Narcan, a form of Naloxone, at all times.
Reports and social media posts from concerned citizens illustrate the dire state of the city. Rampant drug use, assaults, and emotionally disturbed individuals have become a regular occurrence at various locations in New York City. These incidents depict a city that is struggling to maintain law and order, with current policies failing to effectively deal with the crisis.
One major contributing factor to the worsening situation in America’s largest cities, including New York City, is the influx of fentanyl. Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, has pointed out that the majority of fentanyl flooding the streets of America enters through the unsecured southern border. This alarming revelation highlights the need for stronger border security measures to combat the drug crisis.
The media’s portrayal of the situation and its attempt to downplay the severity of the crisis is also a cause for concern. McCarthy pointed out that most of the fentanyl originates from China and enters the country through the southern border, leading to the deaths of 300 Americans every day. However, the media tends to prioritize political agendas over reporting the true extent of the crisis, which hinders effective action from being taken.
In conclusion, America’s largest cities, under Joe Biden’s presidency, have descended into a state of chaos and danger. The rise in crime, drug addiction, and public safety concerns pose a significant threat to the well-being of residents. It is crucial for the government, at all levels, to address these issues urgently and implement effective strategies to improve the situation in these cities. Only through comprehensive and coordinated efforts can we hope to restore these cities to their former glory and ensure the safety and well-being of their residents.
