Little by little, the state is seeing progress in its efforts to reduce drug overdose deaths
From the New Hampshire Bulletin:
Earlier this month, the Department of Health and Human Services announced drug overdose deaths in New Hampshire have dropped 11 percent since 2018. But there’s actually been no decrease in the last three of those years – except if you look at just opioid deaths.
The rest of the country saw drug deaths spike during the pandemic. New Hampshire was one of the few that didn’t.
