Abstract
- Amazon.com plans to stock opioid overdose medication, naloxone (also known as Narcan), across its warehouse network in response to government pressure to make lifesaving drugs more available in the workplace. The company will start by equipping its North American fulfillment centers with the medication and then expand to other facilities. Amazon's decision comes as public health officials, the White House, and other authorities continue to battle America's opioid crisis. The move could potentially encourage other companies to implement similar efforts. [Extracted from the article]
