Opioid Crisis Impact Analysis: Drug Overdose Epidemiologist Meeting
The opioid crisis, as revealed by the alarming 2% death rate in the US in 2015, is a pressing public health issue. Overdoses have surpassed deaths from guns and car accidents, reminiscent of the HIV epidemic peak. Examining data from leading states like West Virginia and New Mexico, the death rates paint a stark picture of the crisis. Detailed trends from 1990 to 2016 and county-specific data from New Mexico offer valuable insights into the severity of the problem. Annaliese Mayette, a Drug Epidemiologist, shares her expertise at the recipient's meeting on August 29, 2017, shedding light on this critical issue.
