The Daily Star, Wednesday, January 24, 2024



The Oneonta Narcan Initiative Team unveiled a new tool — a ONEbox — that will help in the opioid crisis. The Narcan dispensary boxes were presented during a press conference at Foothills Performing Arts and Civic Center on Friday, Jan. 19.


Twenty-one area businesses are the first in the state to receive ONEboxes, which contain four doses of Narcan (naloxone) and provide a 60-second video in English and Spanish describing how to administer it to a person who has overdosed, a media release said.
