The Ross County Health District promotes the use of narcan which only enables the drug problem. They have signs in villages and even have training regarding overdose prevention. Drug addicts are simply taking advantage of us and even putting innocent lives at risk with their deplorable actions. Also, Ross County has one of the lowest life expectancies in the entire state. Nothing is being done to address this problem instead they are more concerned about giving out narcan to everybody. This mindset of the district will continue to make Ross County undesirable, unfortunately.
