Drug trends and deaths examined ahead of injection facility for Cork City

Portugal's medically supervised drug injection centre.
New focused research on drug-related deaths, drug misuse and drug trends in Cork City is under way as part of efforts to establish a supervised injection facility (SIF) in the city.
The HSE has engaged health experts at UCC to conduct the research following the visit in May of a multi-agency delegation from Cork to SIFs in Lisbon.
