For the first time, the U.S. government will pay for a large study measuring whether overdoses can be prevented by safe injection sites, places where people can use heroin and other narcotics and be revived if they take too much. The grant is expected to provide more than $5 million over four years to New York University and Brown University to study overdose prevention centers in New York City and Providence, R.I.
