This issue with this is that opioid addiction is a symptom of social and personal ills. If the social and personal ills are not addressed then forcing someone to go through withdrawl would only result in that person seeking drugs once released. We know this because forceful treatment is not a novel approach and has been used and failed to varying degrees for decades. In order to solve the opioid crisis upstream treatment needs to occur, and for that to happen spaces for outreach and treatment need to be established.
