UISCE (The Union for Improved Services and Communication for people who use drugs), have released an updated overdose awareness poster to be used during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
We know that people who use drugs may be at increased risk of overdose during this time.
During the outbreak, overdose responders are asked to change their practice. It is recommended that no rescue breaths are provided during this time unless you have access to a Bag Valve Mask (BVM) with the appropriate viral filter and training in using this.
