Résumé :
Heroin-related morbidity and mortality have increased over the past 17 years in the United States, including an increase in overdose deaths from 2089 in 2002 to 15 259 in 2018 and an increase of multiple outbreaks of HIV and hepatitis infections related to injection drug use. Yet research has not examined whether heroin injection is increasing. [Extract]
