A new scourge sweeps through Argentine ghettos
Finally, says his mother María Rosa González, a welfare mom of four, her bone-thin teenage son dismantled the refrigerator to sell aluminum parts within the streets of their Buenos Aires slum.
He did all of this for paco, a smokable, highly addictive street drug sweeping through Argentine ghettos, hooking impoverished teenagers, and prompting law officials here to revamp drug laws to stop its insidious spread.
Research conducted recently through the Argentine Secretariat for Prevention of Substance abuse and Charge of Narcotrafficking, known by its Spanish initials SEDRONAR, showed paco has outpaced other drugs in rates of adolescent users in the last two years. Based on the results of the study, officials say 70,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000 Argentines between 16 and 26 years of age in the greater Buenos Aires area have tried paco.
Paco's effects on users are fast and obvious,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
"My son was un muerto viviendo," she says, a "living dead," before she sent him last year to live with his grandmother within the rural province of Patagonia for 3 months. When he returned,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Jerimias,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then 19, was back at it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], eventually ending up in a Buenos Aires drug clinic, where he just turned 20.
The paco sold this is a chemical byproduct, a leftover when Andean coca foliage is converted into a paste,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then formulated into cocaine bound for US and European markets. Paco was once discarded as laboratory trash,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], says Dr. Ricardo Nadra,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], an Argentine government psychiatrist who works with paco addicts. But Argentina's devastating financial collapse in 2001 left the poorest even poorer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], creating an impoverished demand for "cocaine's garbage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he admits that.
"People were broke plus they couldn't afford to buy anything else," says Dr. Nadra, adding that drug dealers took the leftovers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which look like salt crystals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and added substances such as ground-up glass as a filler in order to improve their profits. "Drug dealers could keep selling pure cocaine in Europe or the US but now they might sell paco in [Argentina's poorer neighborhoods]," he admits that.
By 2002, one man's trash had be a poorer man's drug of choice. Paco had made a social impact, sparking government concerns as well as earning a reference in america State Department's annual drug reports as "a comparatively cheap and addictive drug much like crack."
Since it is smoked instead of sniffed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and because of the physiological impact the confluence of volatile organic compounds have,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], experts like Dr. Roberto Baistrocchi, an Argentine pharmacologist who has studied the drug,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], say paco is quite addictive and can cause lasting physical damage. "More than any other drug, paco is the most dangerous." says Nadra.相关的主题文章：
