Hardly a day goes by without news about America’s opioid problem. It has become this country’s worst and most deadly drug crisis.
According to data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and compiled by The New York Times, drug overdose deaths in 2016 topped 59,000—a 19% increase over 2015. The 2016 overdose death toll is greater than the number of people who died in that year in car crashes (38,000) or from gun violence (36,000).
