Mass. Medical Society Approves Supervised Injection Sites
Play
The Massachusetts Medical Society has voted to support the opening of clinics where drug users could go to use illegal substances under a doctor's supervision. The society voted overwhelmingly on Saturday to adopt a resolution urging the state to create a pilot program, supporting two clinics, so-called supervised injection sites. However, these sites aren't legal in the U.S. under the federal Controlled Substances Act.
