      North Carolina has been a leader in providing access to #Naloxone. The public health leaders of North Carolina understand that anyone can save a life, if they have naloxone on hand. #GetNaloxone #SafeALife @NCPHA @NCDHHS

      I applaud @NCPHA @NCDHHS for the strides they have made. The North Carolina Opioid Action Plan (2017-2021) shows impressive trends in reducing the oversupply of prescription #opioids & increasing the availability of buprenorphine.pic.twitter.com/V5weONGADy

          So the answer is to restrict the use of pain medication by the chronically ill and force them on Suboxone? I can’t believe you are so out of touch with reality. #ChronicPainPatientsDoNotAbuseOrDivert

          So, denying opioid pain medications to those who need it is fine, but throwing suboxone, also an opioid, with a tremendous street value at addicts is prefectly acceptable? Makers of Sub must be paying officials a LOT of $$ .

          Why applaud? The most vulnerable citizens in the country suffering from undertreatment intractable pain from incurable painful diseases and medical conditions forced to choose between suffering or suicide due to a fake opioid crisis based on inflated numbers from cdc-great job?

          Agreed. This may seem horrible but it is what it is. All of you who are patting yourself on the back, do an extra pat on the back for every single person that is a pain patient that you have killed (will kill) due to denying adequate & humane pain control for incurable pain.pic.twitter.com/e8L1L8FHJv

          @CDCgov Estimates over 1 billion opioid related overdose deaths that were unintentional? One would think education should be here too fight this, as well as full transparency as to what else they took with the opioid. Why is it not called alcohol overdose?pic.twitter.com/Wi2GZ8Tu84
