It’s always the same half dozen states on these graphs

What does dispensing rate mean? The amount of people with a prescription at that time? In any given year? In their lifetime?
The amount of individual prescriptions filled per person?

By comparison NZ (where I live) prescribes opioids at a rate of about 11.4% (1.6 strong, 9.8 weak) though that’s 2019 data.

Glad to see we hit the end of the internet and have begun reposting. Twas a fun ride.

I find the „less educated“ states seem to also have higher opioid prescription rates, since they’re also more likely to take reactive measures (opioids, in this case) rather than preventative measures through education (e.g. best practices at work to prevent injury, preference to work in a different occupation altogether, or alternatives to opioids for their condition).

making a half-serious observation, instead of an argument, but this seems like democrat propaganda, you know; California, New York and Minnesota are the lowest
alternatively, maybe democrats being around republicans, or vice-versa leads to more opiates
more data/specification could be helpful, because now I’m getting curious, regardless what the top probably says
in any case don’t do opiates kids; stick to and invest in cigarettes

There’s a big discrepancy between states that require triplicates and those that don’t. Malcolm Gladwell does a really good chapter on this in Revenge of the Tipping Point

Incredible. The idea that more than TWO THIRDS of people in some states are being prescribed opioids in a given year. My God.

Now cross reference that with Afghanistan opioid production between 2008-2011 and Pfizer.
Greed has no limits and value on human life.

How the hell can the dispensing rate be this high?
The lowest at 22% still seems ungodly high.

Sure agriculture and manufacturing are more physically demanding, but none of these red states are in the top 10 for manufacturing and agriculture.

I would like to see a map of heroin use in cities: Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, Orlando…😁

The potential reasoning why those southern states are higher makes some sense but still greater than double Alaska? Many jobs there are physically demanding and also lacking robust medical treatment options.

I think drumpf should make opioids over -the- counter in red states.

This map is total BS

life is depressing there and it’s ok to not do meth and just do pain pills because they are “prescribed”

Instead of droning venezuelian fishboats, you should jail Purdue’s board for life, seize assets from sackler and use the cash to restore, heal and help all the life they destroyed.

Like a dozen people I went to highschool with in central Arkansas died of opioid ODs before 20. I was able to easily get hydros myself by doing some dudes home work for him.
There’s also a massive HIV epidemic thats not being talked about much and I know of a guy thats knowingly spread it to multiple girls, some as young as 14. He did go to jail for something and its rumored be gave HIV to other inmates as well.
Lots of heroin and needle sharing, too.
