Geneva tops list for cocaine use

Cocaine use in Switzerland continues to rise, according to a new study by Addiction Switzerland.

Wastewater analyses show consumption has increased sharply over the past decade, with Geneva and Zurich now ranking among Europe's ten most affected cities. 

Experts say the drug is more available, more pure, and no more expensive than before. 

Hospital admissions and treatment cases are all increasing, while the report says cocaine use is spreading beyond nightlife into workplaces.
