Trump bans federal funding for drug test strips, raising overdose fears

The Trump administration has ruled that federal funds cannot be used to provide drug users with fentanyl and other additive test strips, which help identify dangerous hidden substances in street drugs. The strips are widely used in harm-reduction programmes and have been credited with preventing overdose deaths. Public health experts have warned the decision will likely lead to an increase in overdose fatalities.
