I have had to be isolated at home while working on hep C stuff for San Francisco Community Health Center and others, Staying in this large Haight flat by myself except for my dog Shade, who is also a member of END HEP C SF. We do go out to get him some exercise and we both play it safe!

This is the St. James Infirmary syringe access, 6-8pm, Fridays, 234 Eddy St. Been running for quite awhile. Two of us are new as of 6 weeks ago. Four of us wear masks, gloves, have space between us, and tape on the sidewalk out front, as well as signs and verbal instructions about staying safe during the exchange. We are serving folks through the pandemic, and they are thankful and responsive. Few sites are up, so folks are in need. We see mass dropoffs from folks helping their friends and neighbors. As well as narcan supplies being requested. The sight is supervised by Sam Formo. I’m happy to be able to help in this time of need, and going forward. Thank you✌️
