Opioid drug abuse has killed more Americans than the Iraq, Afghanistan, and Vietnam wars combined
- Opioid drug abuse has killed more Americans than the Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam wars combined, and U.S. veterans and advocates this Veteran's Day are focusing on how to help victims of the crisis.

Veterans are twice as likely as non-veterans to die from accidental overdoses of the highly addictive painkillers, a rate that reflects high levels of chronic pain among vets, particularly those who served in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to federal data.

U.S. government and healthcare officials have been struggling to stem the epidemic of overdoses, which killed more than 64,000 Americans in the 12 months ending last January alone, a 21 percent increase over the previous year, according to the Centers for Disease Control. About 65,000 Americans died in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.

They get hurt. They make it home alive. They are put on addictive drugs that kill and cannabis is ILLEGAL!!!

I am NOT making this about pot but come on! This is ridiculous. Someone has to get their head out of their @ss. Veterans are asking the VA to allow it to be prescribed. That would be a step in the right direction to get them off lethal drugs.

When the drug is addictive you don't need to have an addictive personality. When these have been prescribed by a doctor the patient then becomes addicted.

Please don't malign the victims here.

64,000 died the last 12 months because of opioid overdose??? I don't fucking believe it.
That would be over 5000 per month. 100 per state per month.

Sad....yes.

Unlike the animal kingdom though, humans can choose and have control of their lives.
Those that do choose wisely are, essentially, selecting themselves, so to speak.
So...no offense....just speaking pragmatically....
Even with TPTB interference, a selection process is taking place.

I agree with the above poster.

These statistics seem utterly sensational.

The 'opiate epidemic' narrative is being shoved down people's throats so they can continue to make your strip down to your butthole for your local officer.

I mean now we are supposed to forget that our own CIA & Government are the ones that bring in 90% of the drugs....but nooooo, let's just blame it all on China. Trump #1

Don't believe it

They're artificially increasing th numbers in order to get opioids out of the hands of the general public.


Because opioids actually de-program tears of brainwashing

They've done tons of experiments with mice..where the mice with opioids actually do better, become more cretic etc, and break their training.

I work in a major medical center.

I can tell you...the number of opioid-only deaths have not increased.

Most people who die from OD have multiple drugs in their systems

It takes a lot of opioids to kill someone.

Some numbers actually include heroin in the opioid statistics. Because some drug tests will show heroin usage as an opiate
