CDC: Overdose deaths in US top 100,000 last year
DATED: DECEMBER 22, 2022 BY SHARYL ATTKISSON

The following is an excerpt from Associated Press (AP).

Nearly 107,000 Americans died of drug overdoses last year, according to final figures released Thursday.

The official number was 106,699, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

That’s nearly 16% higher than the nearly 92,000 overdose deaths in 2020.

Earlier, provisional data suggested there were more than 107,000 overdose deaths last year.

The numbers may have changed as some additional death records have come in, a CDC spokesman said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If Biden will leave the border open long enough, the number might double. :doa:
