LOS ÁNGELES, 23 de enero de 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- El Departamento de Salud Pública del Condado de Los Ángeles, a través de su Oficina de Prevención y Control del Abuso de Sustancias (SAPC), anunció una nueva asociación con End Overdose , una organización dedicada a prevenir las sobredosis de drogas a través de la educación, la capacitación y el alcance comunitario, para abordar la crisis del fentanilo en el Condado de Los Ángeles. Juntos, Salud Pública y End Overdose tendrán presencia en varios festivales musicales y culturales en todo el condado de Los Ángeles en 2025. Los asistentes tendrán la oportunidad de aprender sobre los riesgos del fentanilo, recibir capacitación y certificación sobre cómo administrar naloxona, recibir naloxona gratis y acceder a recursos gratuitos para ayudar a prevenir y revertir las sobredosis.

Esta colaboración continúa los esfuerzos continuos de Salud Pública para abordar la crisis del fentanilo en el condado de Los Ángeles. Casi 2000 residentes del condado de Los Ángeles murieron por sobredosis o intoxicación accidental por fentanilo en 2023, según el Informe de datos de fentanilo del condado de Los Ángeles de 2024. 1 La asociación ampliará el alcance de la campaña Fentanyl Frontline en curso de Salud Pública, una iniciativa que se lanzó el año pasado para concienciar sobre los peligros del fentanilo ilícito y promover el uso de naloxona, un medicamento para revertir la sobredosis de opioides que salva vidas.

"Nuestra asociación con End Overdose mejora nuestros esfuerzos continuos para poner fin a la crisis del fentanilo al proporcionar educación, capacitación y recursos críticos a nuestras comunidades", dijo el Dr. Gary Tsai, Director de SAPC. "Juntos, nuestro objetivo es capacitar a las personas con el conocimiento y las herramientas necesarias para prevenir y responder a las sobredosis relacionadas con el fentanilo, salvando vidas y fomentando un entorno más seguro para todos los residentes del condado de Los Ángeles".

End Overdose ha estado a la vanguardia de los esfuerzos de prevención de sobredosis, proporcionando educación y capacitación sobre el uso seguro de la naloxona y otras estrategias de reducción de daños. End Overdose y Salud Pública están trabajando juntos para garantizar que más personas, particularmente aquellas en comunidades de alto riesgo, tengan acceso a herramientas y conocimientos que salvan vidas. Las pruebas de laboratorio de la DEA indican actualmente que 7 de cada 10 píldoras compradas en la calle contienen una dosis potencialmente mortal de fentanilo ilícito, y no hay forma de ver, oler o saborear si una píldora o polvo ha sido atado. El fentanilo ilícito es lo suficientemente común como para que cualquier persona, en cualquier lugar del condado de Los Ángeles, pueda verse afectada por las píldoras o polvos con fentanilo.

"La crisis del fentanilo requiere un enfoque unido y proactivo, y nuestra asociación con el Departamento de Salud Pública del Condado de Los Ángeles es un paso vital para abordar esta emergencia de salud pública", dijo Theo Krzywicki, fundador y director ejecutivo de End Overdose. "Estamos trabajando juntos para garantizar que nadie en el condado de Los Ángeles pierda a un ser querido por una sobredosis prevenible".

Esta asociación marca un paso adelante en la reducción de las muertes por sobredosis y la promoción de una comunidad más segura y más informada.
