ARC: 17 Adair Co. overdose mortalities 2011-2015 According to the Appalachian Regional Commission, Adair County's mortality rate from opiod overdoses was 27.3 for the years from 2011-2015, lower than the 30.6 rate for all of Appalachia, but notably higher than the 20.6 per 100k national average. Russell County had the highest average of surrounding counties, with nearly three times as many deaths from overdose.
The ARC's new Appalachian Overdose Mapping Tool integrates overdose mortality rates for each Appalachian county with data on unemployment, poverty, and disability, as well as other socioeconomic variables. Users can compare county-level information with regional and national data and see changes in the data between 2006–2010 and 2011–2015. The mapping tool can also generate fact sheets to assist in community planning and response efforts. This story was posted on 2018-03-22 08:35:03
