Abstract
The purpose of this report is threefold: first, to identify the South Carolina (SC) counties at the highest
risk for injection drug use and resultant bloodborne infection outbreaks; second, to identify
the resources SC currently has that could help reduce the burden of addiction and bloodborne
infection outbreaks; and last, to present evidence-based interventions and identify preventative
services both at the state- and county-level that may lead to reducing the risk of substance abuse
and infection outbreaks resulting from unsafe injection drug use (IDU).
