For decades, the lack of a national tracking system for opioid overdoses made it harder for U.S. health officials to respond, experts say. Now, the Biden administration has announced a new system to better collect data.

Gupta said many of those deaths could have been prevented with better information and better, more targeted addiction treatment.Data on the new website will be managed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which collects EMS data.will provide a limited snapshot of drug overdoses.

The website also won't include information from hospitals, schools, businesses non-profits and academic programs that collect non-fatal overdose information. He said the data collection system would improve over time. Despite its limitations, some addiction experts praised the new program.

Close the border would be a good start.

Another good action by President Joe

NPR/Democrats have coined a new word for junkies: Drug-challenged! An opioid junkie is a drug-challenged person, and he is proud of himself. Soon they will have their own parade. 😅😁😂

How many points do we get on our social credit score if we never used at all? Yeah more tracking! But for real, hope the people that need help can get it.

I hope this new system does a better job than VEARS did with the covid vaccine.

Like Obama/Biden took Energy and Food out of the Inflation index to make the numbers look better?

Coddling people who take drugs and break the law shows how much the government is against drugs. Not at all.

Interesting that the Covid death numbers seemed to be very easy to find out on stations like CNN back 2020-2021 maybe because the numbers were grossly exaggerated and misleading.

Collecting data will save lives? Seriously

Pay attention to the people harmed by the Covid vaccines before they all die of sudden death.

Now if they would secure our borders we could prevent many of these overdoses. Fentanyl deaths have skyrocketed since Biden took office & allowed millions of people from over 100 countries to pour into our country. Biden is just as responsible for those deaths as the cartels

'Better tracking of overdoses' is the plan? How about closing the border, prosecuting smugglers, and shut down pill mill pharmacies. Yes, your mouth will hurt after dental work. You don't need opioids to deal with the pain.

Here’s a crazy idea maybe he could shut down the border and watch those overdose’s drastically drop.

Just go to the border., POTUS

I'm so happy to hear that!!. My beloved sister died alone on a cold floor as a result of her severe addiction to opiates. I miss her so much 💔

Just follow hunter Biden around

How about stopping the illegals from bringing it over?

Try getting a handle on the border, over which huge amounts of fentanyl are pouring

Nice! He’ll potentially figure out that it’s a huge problem.

White House won't say if Hunter Biden laptop came from 'hacked materials'The White House on Wednesday refused to answer a question about the Hunter Biden laptop saga and whether his father's presidential campaign asked Twitter to classify the information as constituting 'hacked materials.' The FBI (Trump’s DOJ) got the laptop from John Paul Mac Isaac in December 2019. That means they (Bill Barr and Trump’s DOJ) had 10 MONTHS to verify the contents. If there is overwhelming evidence of financial crimes as Republicans keep insisting, why didn’t Barr indict? 🤷‍♂️ WTF? He has never denied it’s his laptop! There should be a movie made on the laptop.
