Скачать или смотреть CDC: Drug overdose deaths in the US increased by 30%, driven by fentanyl

Drug overdose deaths rapidly increased between 2019 and 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found, and minority groups were largely affected.

There were 91,799 drug overdose deaths in the United States, research from the CDC reports. That number represents the approximate 30 percent increase from 2019. Health experts believe the recent deaths have been driven by "illicitly manufactured" fentanyl.

The COVID-19 pandemic played a role in the deaths, the CDC says, as people across the U.S. were impacted by the lack of access to prevention, treatment and harm reduction.
