AUSTIN (KXAN) — After a recent string of deadly overdoses throughout the city, local leaders are holding a demonstration Monday morning on how to use Naloxone, more commonly known as Narcan.
Officials from both Austin and Travis County are holding a news conference to talk about making the overdose reversal drug more widely available in the community. They’ll also show how to administer in the event someone needs it.
Speakers at Monday’s event include Travis County Judge Andy Brown, U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, Austin City Council Member Leslie Pool and others.
KXAN will provide a live stream of their remarks in this story starting at about 10 a.m.
