Hooked episode 17 is all about supervised injecting rooms and the recent media coverage of Professor John Strang's RIOTT (Randomised Injectable Opioid Treatment Trial) and its outcomes.

We also discuss the language used by the media and the way British media seemed to insist on calling it a 'shooting gallery'. As well as the RIOTT we talked about Insites supervised injecting facility where people are able to inject street drugs in a safe environment.
