A $20 minimum wage, no 2024 ballot measure
Martha Hernandez, a community health worker for the L.A. County Department of Public Health, demonstrates administering Narcan and helping someone during an overdose emergency, with the help of resident Jose Magaña Lozano.Responding to a sharp rise in opioid overdose deaths among Latinos, LA County public health officials have teamed up with consulates for Spanish-speaking nations to distribute Narcan and raise awareness of opioid risks.
“People do mistake the fact that it’s nasal [spray], they think it’s for allergies,” she said “That’s where you see the necessity of educating our community because a lot of people will say ‘oh I need it, I have allergies.”The Mexican consulate in L.A. feels like a DMV, with hard plastic chairs in rows. On a recent morning, about 30 people were waiting for their new Mexican passports or ID cards.
Today, she tells the impromptu audience, they’ll learn how to save someone from dying of an opioid overdose. Fake pills are sold online and over social media according to the Drug Enforcement Administration, which last year said more than 60% of the fentanyl-laced fake prescription pills it tested contained a potentially lethal amount of the opioid.CPR training and free Narcan
Jose Magaña Lozano watches intently a couple rows back. He volunteers to try CPR on the mannequin and is one of the 20 people who take a free box of Narcan after the presentation is over. At 67, Magaña Lozano works in cement construction in L.A. and has lived in the U.S. for 30 years.
