I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but I was reading the other day that in 1929 there was a malaria outbreak in New York city caused by needle sharing among addicts. As users were dying, dealers decided to start cutting their heroin with quinine.
Can anyone confirm this story, and if so, are there are good sources to read about it?
Second, is there even one other case where dealers cut their product with something intended to help the user?
