Pensées pour #BéatriceStambul, avec qui j'ai mis en place le programme de #Méthadone dans le Kachin.
Béa, héroïne de notre temps, tu me manques beaucoup.

#Trump claims to fight opiod abuse. His big beautiful bill will kill #Medicaid. Guess how states pay for #methadone treatment? Medicaid and all the other names states have for it. Users in recovery have a hard time getting employment. Records for possession.
