The Daily Yonder Report: 10 Western States See Some Drug Overdoses Deaths Increase by Nearly 100% The Covid-19 pandemic-related stress, isolation, and a wave of drugs contaminated with extremely potent synthetic opioid, fentanyl, are factors in a severe rise of deadly overdoses.
According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released in December 2020, 10 western states have seen drug overdoses deaths increase in 2020.
The increases are particularly troubling for rural counties in those states, some of which have the highest rates of opioid overdose deaths in the country.
The CDC’s report found that drug overdose deaths related to synthetic opioids like fentanyl have seen their levels increase by more than 98%.
