Amanpour & Co.
Inside America’s First Overdose Prevention Center
In 2021, more than 107,000 people died of a drug overdose in the U.S. This amounts to one overdose death every five minutes for a full year. One man attempting to change all this is Sam Rivera, executive director of OnPoint NYC. The organization prevents drug-related deaths by providing safe spaces where people can use illegal drugs under staff supervision.
