Opioid overdose deaths were a growing problem in Florida for yea

Avalon - Opioid overdose deaths were a growing problem in Florida for years before Ron DeSantis became governor in January 2019.
The CDC told PolitiFact that Florida had 7,827 overdose deaths in 2021 compared with 7,611 in 2022, based on preliminary data for 2022. That equals about a 2.8% decrease.
The state’s Coordinated Opioid Recovery, or CORE, provides a comprehensive approach to drug addiction. It expanded to 12 counties in August 2022. Thanks Joe
