À propos de cet audio
In this episode of The Pivot, produced by the Gillings School of Global Public Health at UNC-Chapel Hill, we delve into the complexities of the opioid crisis and the vital role of Narcan in saving lives. We hear from Dr. Shauna Guthrie, a dedicated family physician who leads opioid treatment efforts in North Carolina, alongside Sergeant Justin Vause, a law enforcement officer actively involved in Narcan education and overdose prevention. Joining the conversation is Dr. Juan Hincapie-Castillo, an epidemiology professor, who shares his insights into policy challenges and misconceptions surrounding opioid use disorder and pain management. Together, they talk about the human toll of opioid addiction, the stigma surrounding Narcan, and essential resources available for those affected.
The Pivot features stories of impact, discovery and surprise in public health. A production of the Gillings School of Global Public Health at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.
