[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2826688, member: 9374"] The good news is that Oklahoma no longer leads the nation, like we did a couple of years ago. Overall rates continue to climb, however. Oklahoma ranks in the second-highest category at 20-30 per 100,000. [url]http://www.aol.com/article/2015/12/21/drug-overdose-deaths-are-at-an-all-time-high/21286180/?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000058&intcmp=hplnws[/url] Looks like Oklahoma's rate went from 20.8 in 2013 to 20.3 in 2014 (from 790 to 777), a whopping 1.5% decrease. This was one of the few states that had a decline, however it was not a statistically significant change. I can tell you there have been significant improvements and effort made at the state level into changing this trend, but it is a massively uphill battle. [/QUOTE]
