It’s Not Tapering: “A social worker and nurse practitioner demonstrated how to administer Narcan nasal spray — a potentially life-saving treatment during an opioid overdose — to a classroom of more than a dozen barber college students on the city’s South Side on Tuesday. It was part of an initiative by Rush University Medical Center to help combat the opioid crisis in typically underserved communities.” Even your barber needs training in treating opioid overdoses.

Messi, who was 20, was already making a name for himself and would go on to become arguably the greatest of all time.” But the baby was no slouch. Photos of Messi and baby Lamine Yamal resurface.
