Poll finds 60% of Americans Don’t Plan on Buying Narcan

DUMBEST POLL EVER –

Sept. 29, 2023 – Young adults (25% of 18- to 29-year-olds) were most likely to consider buying the nasal spray; respondents ages 65 and older (13%) and those who identified as politically independent or conservative (16% and 17%, respectively) were least likely.

What’s stopping them? While experts have expressed reservations about the $44.99 retail cost set by manufacturer Emergent BioSolutions, only 1% of those who ruled out buying Narcan cited its cost as a deterrent. The main hesitation? Most people don’t think they will ever have cause to use it. “I don’t think I will need it,” 43% of those surveyed responded when asked why they wouldn’t consider adding it to their shopping basket.
