Crimes against human health are on the rise in European legislation. The number of these criminal acts in the European Union is at a very high level, which indicates the fact that there are a large number of perpetrators of these acts, as well as a large number of people who consume narcotic drugs. Criminal offenses against human health include the criminal offenses of producing and placing narcotic drugs on the market, unauthorised possession of narcotic drugs, enabling the enjoyment of narcotic drugs, failure to follow health instructions during the pandemic, transmission of infectious diseases, transmission of HIV infection, negligent provision of medical care assistance, illegal medical experiments and drug testing, failure to provide medical assistance, quackery and quack pharmacy, improper treatment in the preparation and dispensing of medicines, production and placing on the market of harmful products, unconscionable inspection of foodstuffs, and contamination of drinking water and foodstuffs.
