But first, we need to reevaluate what we think we know about the pharmaceutical industry and how we got to the opioid epidemic.
In 2016, opioid overdose was responsible for more than 42,000 deaths; 40% were prescribed. By 2017, the U.S. Health and Human Services declared a public health emergency: the Opioid Crisis. Overdoses increased by 30% during the pandemic (2019-2020).
Help us fight the opioid epidemic by supporting our cause.
