Title: Opioid Crisis Fuels a Spike in HIV Infections, and Experts Fear there's More to Come

Description: Article titled, "Opioid Crisis Fuels a Spike in HIV Infections, and Experts Fear there's More to Come," by Erin Schumaker published on the Huffington Post Website on April 26, 2018. The article features two cities in Massachusetts struggling with HIV outbreaks made particularly difficult by the prevalence of fentanyl use. Fentanyl produces a short but intense high, leading to more frequent injections, which in turn leads to a greater likelihood that people will share needles. Needle sharing is a common means by which HIV can be spread.
