This is an empty container of nalxone the optiate overdose reversal medication, hopefully meaning that someones life has been saved... in a DCR naloxone is always available which is part of the reason that there has never been an overdose death in a DCR. Source: Nigel Brundson

Harm Reduction International monitored prison decongestion measures adopted around the world between March and June 2020 in response to COVID-19, and found evidence of such schemes in 109 countries. Looking at the cumulative effect of COVID-19-related schemes, we observe that in total, they reduced the global prison population by less than 6%, as of 24 June 2020. This falls significantly short of expectations and the significant political commitments made in the name of public health. Source: HRI
