Clip: 11/17/2021 | 52sVideo has Closed Captions
Between April 2020 and April 2021, fatalities in NJ dropped by 1%
Nationwide, drug overdose deaths soared to more than 100,000 for the first time in a 12-month period – marking a 29% increase over the previous year. That according to provisional data from the CDC – which is adjusted to account for delays in reporting. But New Jersey is just one of four states that saw overdose deaths decrease, even if only slightly.
