Local health experts call on city leaders to address drug crisis
Today a group of doctors, public health experts and community organizations joined together to call on San Francisco city leaders to do more to address the drug overdose crisis. They held a news conference outside of the medical examiner's office to highlight the more than 3000 people who've died from overdoses in the city since the beginning of 2020. KTVU's Alex Savidge discusses some of the data-driven strategies the group is suggesting the city implement with Laura Thomas, Director of Harm Reduction Policy at the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.
