A recent study conducted by Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts, highlights the severity of the opioid crisis in the United States. The study reveals that the country has experienced over 100,000 overdose-related deaths in a 12-month period, primarily due to synthetic opioids like fentanyl. The research emphasizes the urgent need for a coordinated response to the crisis, known as the Community-based Response to Drug Overdose (CReDO) initiative. By promoting information sharing, shortening response times, and fostering community collaboration, CReDO aims to save lives and address the multifaceted nature of opioid addiction.
