So it looks like it went from ~3 people per 100k died from these three causes in 1999, to ~19 people per 100k in 2018. Not great!

And it has continued to skyrocket since 2018, especially from 2020 through today.

It’s at 34 in 21 and likely even higher last year.

Beyond stuff like liver disease.

Crack users are actually significantly more likely die to homicide or AIDS than overdose. Meth, on the other hand, has a large amount of overdose deaths.
