The biggest killer of San Franciscans in 2020, by far, was drug overdoses. We will end 2020 w close to 700 overdoses, nearly 3x deaths of 2 years ago. Nearly 2 a day. There was mostly silence or business usual from city departments & Room 200. This was a brutal, shameful failure

Death & devastation from this drug crisis is everywhere you look. We grieve w families, friends & loved ones of those lost. This city can do so much better in responding--w urgency, coordinated, comprehensive strategy, but first step is acknowledging the problem & caring.

Many parts of my district feel abandoned, & the people along with them. Residents, businesses forced to fend for themselves. I hear from them & work with them everyday. Has anyone heard from the Mayor?

Fentanyl hit SF in 2018 hard. And deaths and devastation have shot up since. But SF hasn't done anything different for the most part. Same approach, same resources, no heightened urgency. And the results are brutal, entirely unprecedented in its deadly impact.

Great. Now actually do something about it, other than setting the stage to announce your candidacy for Room 200. The Feds have already had to step in where the DA wouldn’t. Same with UC Hastings. Make a difference now!

Unfortunately, as a resident of D6, that's a risk he won't take.

Just wondering, @quail1981: why the third person?
