Indiana provides $1.3 million in additional funding to distribute Narcan
<\/strong>Governor Holcomb announced that Indiana will fund a $1.3 million distribution of the opioid reversal agent Naloxone, better known as Narcan, to ensure the medication reaches Hoosiers who are at risk of a\u00a0<\/strong>drug overdose. Naloxone is given when a person is showing signs of opioid overdose to block the toxic effects of the overdose and is often the difference between a patient living and dying. According to the CDC, Indiana reported a 33 percent increase in fatal overdoses in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the state\u2019s third investment in naloxone distribution on the past 15 months, when Gov. Holcomb announced a $1 million investment in 25,000 doses amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Already this year, Overdose Lifeline, Inc. and the Indiana Department of Health have distributed almost 41,000 doses of naloxone to individuals, first responders, local health departments, and other distribution entities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IU Swimming & Diving program produces 11 Olympic Medals<\/strong>
The Indiana University swimming and diving program sent 13 current, former, and Indiana Swim Club trainees, and two coaches to the Olympic Games 2020 Tokyo. The athletes returned with 11 medals. IU head diving coach\u00a0Drew Johansen<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0served as the head coach for Team USA’s diving program that won three medals (2S, 1B) and counting, including the first ever medal in the women’s 10m Synchro Platform and women’s 3m Springboard events. Hoosier head swimming coach\u00a0Ray Looze<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0was an assistant swimming coach for Team USA. The Americans claimed 30 medals (11G, 10S, 9B) during the swimming stages of the Olympic competition, 10 more than Australia (20), the next closest country in the standings.
\u00a0
Current Hoosier student-athletes or alums combined to earn 10 medals (4G, 5S, 1B), led by relay golds from Zach Apple and Blake Pieroni and three silver medals from the diving well. The total medal count (10) is the highest produced by the Indiana swim and dive program since Mark Spitz led the way during the historic Olympic Games 1972 Munich. IU athletes would earn 16 medals (12G, 3S, 1B) in ’72. Spitz set a then Olympic record with seven gold medals and seven world records.
