In Taylor County, Wisconsin, a third public health vending machine is set to be installed, providing Narcan, fentanyl strips, and other medical supplies, complementing two existing machines that have distributed significant quantities of harm reduction materials. Meanwhile, Richmond County Emergency Medical Services has implemented a secure vending machine pharmacy to enhance medication management and patient care, streamlining operations with access codes for medication dispensing. In British Columbia, Premier David Eby has ordered a review of vending machines outside hospitals that dispense drug paraphernalia, following public criticism regarding their potential to normalize drug use. The machines, initially intended for harm reduction, have sparked political debate, with opponents arguing they undermine public health efforts. Advocates stress the importance of accessible harm reduction supplies while calling for a balanced approach to addiction treatment. Additionally, a new toll-free service has been announced to assist those struggling with opioid addiction, further expanding the province's response to the drug crisis.
