This season, Countermeasures traces the arc of public health crises and bioterrorism events across centuries, from the Black Death to the 2001 Anthrax attacks. We dig into how societies responded in the moment, what those responses reveal in hindsight, and what we still need to learn. Each episode uncovers the science and the human decisions behind our fight against health threats, and asks what it will take to be ready for the next one. Brought to you by Emergent, a leading public health company that delivers protective and life-saving solutions to communities around the world.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-03T00:20:23.256015+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/countermeasures-6628039"},"episode":{"title":"Naloxone Access","slug":"naloxone-access","published_at":"2025-12-10T05:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/countermeasures-6628039/naloxone-access","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/countermeasures-6628039","url":"https://www.emergentbiosolutions.com/opioid-crisis/","audio_url":"https://pdrl.fm/27ceda/audio-delivery.cohostpodcasting.com/audio/41ef96e0-9fb2-47cc-9d12-aed60570cfb6/episodes/d8a4de42-8852-400c-904d-2e0abf26486f/episode.mp3","summary":"Since becoming available over the counter, Naloxone has saved countless lives. In this episode, we explore how expanded access is helping communities confront the opioid crisis, the real-world impact on individuals, and the work that still lies ahead. Experts point to broader availability as a key factor in recent declines in overdose deaths, but the crisis is far from over. Many rural and marginalized communities continue to face devastating losses. We look at how easier access to Naloxone is shaping outcomes, supporting harm-reduction efforts, and offering hope where it’s needed most.
