And you have no data to support your claims because no one has looked at this particular issue. Why should your opinion that it has no effect be given any consideration given the overwhelming anecdotal evidence that it is a serious concern?

These sites save lives, there is ample evidence of that. O/D's, HIV/AIDS, various infections from shared needles, all can be fatal and are prevented by provision of clean needles used under medical supervision. There is also evidence that people who use A SIS are more likely to seek detox and counseling to quit. This may not occur immediately be successful immediately, but if you die in a back alley it's unlikely you will ever seek that type of help.
