Public Transit Agencies Join the Fight to Curb Overdose Deaths

As the US opioid crisis continues, cities are making Narcan available to reverse overdoses on trains or near transit stations.

Sheila Haennicke’s son was on a Blue Line train in Chicago when he overdosed on fentanyl. The only thing that might have saved his life in the five minutes it took for the ambulance to arrive is naloxone, an emergency opioid overdose reversal treatment.

In the wake of her son’s death, Haennicke is part of a growing movement to make the nasal spray, commonly distributed as Narcan, available near public transit.

“If there had been Narcan on the platform or around the car, someone might have been able to grab it and help him,” said Haennicke.
