Popis: |
The isolation that comes from social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic can be particularly detrimental to the United States’ population of people who use drugs. People with substance use disorders may be at risk for return to use, exacerbation of existing mental health disorders, and risky drug practices. In this commentary, we review the risk to people who use drugs and how emergency department providers can best support these individuals during the unprecedented time of social distancing. |
