Letter: Dr Roop association of opioid crisis in KY Comments re: Roop appointed to KY Opioid Abatement Advisory Commission Mary Bardin writes: The opioid and substance abuse crisis is at an all time level in KY with emphasis on South Central KY. So many people have lost their lives, families, income and their inner soul because of addictions. Yet, we still do not seem to treat the root of the evil. The pharmaceutical companies have shared the blame, and thanks to Attorney Cameron, have paid the price. Addiction is in almost every family in some way or fashion.
