Dillon opposes safe injection sites
State Sen. Jimmy Dillon joined Sens. Christine Tartaglione, Sharif Street and Anthony Williams in filing an amicus brief in the U.S. vs. Safehouse case. The Justice Department is in settlement talks with Safehouse, the nonprofit that has proposed launching the site. The four lawmakers hope to prevent Safehouse from opening a safe injection site in the city.
“My constituents are worried that safe injection sites will threaten the safety of their communities. They’ve made it clear to me that they don’t want these sites near their homes, schools or places of worship,” Dillon said. “I want to address the root causes of the opioid epidemic, such as overprescribing pain medication and inadequate access to healthcare. We need to reduce opioid use and increase affordable recovery options. Safe injection sites do not address these underlying issues and may divert resources from vital prevention and treatment programs.” ••

Fox Chase No. 2 in cancer surgeries
According to the 2022 Cancer Surgery Volume Report from the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council, Fox Chase Cancer Center performed the second-highest number of cancer surgeries in Pennsylvania in the last fiscal year.
Considered by surgical type, Fox Chase Cancer Center performed more bladder cancer surgeries than any other hospital in the state, and ranked second highest for colon cancer, liver, lung, prostate and stomach.
“Data from PHC4 does not control for the size of the hospital, so being second in volumes when we are not the second-largest hospital is even more impactful,” said Dr. Robert Uzzo, president and CEO of Fox Chase. “Because we know that higher volumes are linked to better outcomes, these numbers indicate that Fox Chase is a top performer for cancer surgery in the region. We hope these statistics will be helpful in providing cancer patients and their families with information to make important decisions.”
The data included is from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. ••
