At the same time as a national alert over romaine lettuce!
JAMA also dropped some stats today, fwiw, came to same overall death rate conclusion jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/ which was reassuring.

Death rate is rising - no doubt at all. What's missing is that with few exceptions no one has analyzed sample data. Here in Philly for instance DEA suspected it is actually dope purposely adulterated w/coke that's causing increase in concurrent deaths. That's not ->

The gov't is still counting 'bodies as they lie' and inferring what is happening on the street based on what they find in the deceased. A real public health approach would look at the drugs and the poisons in them. "Test the lettuce!"
