Community drug problems and drug-related harms continue to reflect and exacerbate existing social and spatial inequalities in Ireland, as evidenced by Trutz Haas in research undertaken for the Dept. of Health, and the experience of Covid has highlighted the link between drugs and wider socio-economic issues.
