Tập 21 Số 3 - Trang 295-303 - 2002
Paul Dietze, John Fitzgerald
In this Harm Reduction Digest Paul Dietze and John Fitzgerald provide another possible way of understanding what has come to be referred to as Australia's heroin ‘drought’. They examine evidence from Melbourne, Victoria and suggest that the apparent downturn in heroin availability in 2000 may, in part, be the result of an end of a heroin ‘glut’ and that perceptions of this phenomenon may b...... hiện toàn bộ
