  Oz gavaman finds free needle & syringe save lives & billions $.

  ''For syringes found in the local community - we will come and pick them up.''

  read below...then u know syringes can be found in oz.......

  wwww

  U read correctly.Oz gavaman have given free needle and syringe

  for almost 20 years to drugs addicts .This NSP

  (Needle and Syringe Program)

  can save lives from HIV and hepatitis C and saving billions

  of dollars in curing them when drugs addicts infected

  with shared needle and syringe.

  Oz gavaman claimed--

  ''This has meant that in Australia, HIV infection is very rare among both injecting
  drug users and the wider community. In some countries, such as the United
  States and parts of Europe, where Needle and Syringe Programs were not
  established in time, HIV spread rapidly among injecting drug users and to the
  wider community through sexual contact. In Australia, the level of HIV infection
  among people who inject drugs has remained around 1%, compared to other
  countries with levels over 50%.'''

  2.Have Oz gavaman sent the wrong signal to young people and drugs lords?

  while we can understand the benefits of the NSP,we also have to look at

  the down side of the programme.

  Does it mean Oz alredy given up in drugs problems?

  I think so.They always say,''If u cant defeat them,join them!!''

  Oz have provided air cond and safe Injection Room to addicts since

  few years ago.

  I dunt know Oz tax payers also so kind to provide Needle etc to addicts.

  In this way,i think Oz gavaman shall monopoly selling  drugs

  and make more $$ and reduce tax!!

  TO CONCLUDE,DRUGS IS A WAY OF LIFE IN OZ.

  If u stay in oz,u have to sleep with this problem.

  Oz gavaman just take

  ''problematic drug use as a public health, rather than a criminal justice issue''.

  In this mind set,u cant tackle the problem!!

  Like this Melbourne gavaman message--

  ''Nearly all people in our communities consume drugs of some sort, whether it be legal drugs, prescription drugs or illegal drugs. Although much of the drug use in our communities does not cause problems, some drug use can have extremely negative effects on individuals, families and the broader community. Harm reduction strategies treat such instances of problematic drug use as a public health, rather than a criminal justice issue. They aim to maximise the health and wellbeing of individuals, their families and the community as a whole.''
