Growing scope of Oregon psilocybin program raises safety concerns, study says

A new study from Johns Hopkins University suggests that Oregon's pioneering psilocybin program, which permits adults over 21 to access the psychedelic for non-strictly medical purposes, might be enrolling more participants than is safe. This evolution raises significant safety concerns, especially given the lack of comprehensive oversight and understanding of the long-term effects of psilocybin use. As the program expands, it's crucial to balance innovation with rigorous safety protocols to protect participants and the broader community.
