I notice on another thread the dumbo's are going berserk over a proposal to introduce a safe injecting environment for addicts in central Melbourne.
Sydney has had such a facility for some 20 years and has been supported by both NSW Liberal and Labor govts.
Those criticising the Melbourne proposal are not doing so on its merits. They are just playing petty partisan politics.
"TheUniting Medically Supervised Injecting Centre Kings Cross(also known asUniting MSICorSydney Medically Supervised Injecting Centre) is a state government-supported facility inKings Cross, New South Walesthat provides safe injecting rooms, sterile equipment and medical supervision for individuals who wish to administer an illicit drug intravenously.
The centre, which opened in May 2001, was the firstlegal injecting siteinAustraliawith the primary purpose of preventing the risk of injuries and death resulting from unsafe and unhygienic injecting practices.[2]
As one of the first medically supervised injecting centres in the world, Uniting MSIC has received global attention for its successful reduction in drug-related emergencies.
As of 2016, the centre had successfully supervised over one million injections with no fatalities.[3]"
