Major decline in drug overdose deaths reported by CDC

Last week, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced a 24% decline in drug overdose deaths. Provisional data from the CDC's National Vital Statistics System “predict” this decline for the 12 month period ending in September 2024, compared to the previous year. This data shows about 87,000 drug overdose deaths from October 2023 to Septemeber 2024, down from 114,00 the previous year.

Abstract

Last week, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced a 24% decline in drug overdose deaths. Provisional data from the CDC's National Vital Statistics System “predict” this decline for the 12 month period ending in September 2024, compared to the previous year. This data shows about 87,000 drug overdose deaths from October 2023 to Septemeber 2024, down from 114,00 the previous year.
