Wolf administration officials joined Wilkes-Barre City Fire Chief Jay Delaney to highlight how naloxone, a lifesaving opioid overdose reversal drug, should be available for all first responders.

“First responders are on the frontlines of the battle against opioid overdoses and have already saved more than 3,800 lives using naloxone,” Acting Health Secretary and Physician General Dr. Rachel Levine said in a press release. “It’s essential that all first responders have access to naloxone because it saves lives. Communities such as Wilkes-Barre are not only keeping residents safe, but they give people battling addiction a chance at recovery.”
