DRUGS USED BY 275 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD AT LEAST ONCE - 31 MILLION BECOME HARMFULLY ADDICTED - COMPARES DON JURAVIN

DRUGS USED BY 275 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD AT LEAST ONCE - 31 MILLION BECOME HARMFULLY ADDICTED - COMPARES DON JURAVIN\n\nDon Karl Juravin (JURAVIN RESEARCH) conducted a world's thorough study of the drug deaths comparing 230 countries.\n\n \n\nDeath From Drugs (Cannabis, Opioids, Cocaine, Amphetamine-type stimulants, Tranquilizers and sedatives, Hallucinogens, Solvents, and inhalants)\n\nrate per 1,000,000 aged 15-64 | lower is better | 2018 report\n\n \n\nComparing USA Vs. Europe’s top countries (Germany, France, Italy) Vs. Israel\n\nWINNER: Israel\n\n\n\t\n\tIsrael's deaths from drugs are 4.28 times better than the world average\n\t\n\t\n\tIsrael's deaths from drugs are 20.66 times better than the USA\n\t\n\t\n\tIsrael's deaths from drugs are 1.01 times better than Euro-top\n\t\n\n\nAnnual deaths\n\n\n\t\n\tIsrael: 83 deaths\n\t\n\t\n\tEuro-top: 1,639 deaths\n\t\n\t\n\tUSA: 63,632 deaths\n\t\n\n\nDrugs Deaths Important Key Factors\n\n\n\t\n\tGlobal cocaine manufacture in 2016 reached its highest level ever: an estimated 1,410 tons. After falling during the period 2005–2013, global cocaine manufacture rose by 56 percent during the period 2013–2016. The increase from 2015 to 2016 was 25 percent. \n\t\n\t\n\tMost of the world’s cocaine comes from Colombia, which boosted its manufacture by more than one third from 2015 to 2016, to some 866 tons. The total area under coca bush cultivation worldwide in 2016 was 213,000 ha, almost 69 percent of which was in Colombia.\n\t\n\t\n\tOne in eight people who inject drugs is living with HIV. Injecting drugs is a major route for transmission of the HCV virus.\n\t\n\t\n\tAlmost half of all prevalence of people who inject drugs worldwide in 2016 were estimated to reside in just three countries: China, the Russian Federation, and the United States. Although these three countries combined account for just 27 percent of the global population aged 15–64 years, together they are home to 45 percent of the world’s prevalence of people who inject drugs, an estimated 4.8 million people. \n\t\n\t\n\tIn 2015 and 2016, for the first time in half a century, life expectancy in the United States of America declined for two consecutive years. A key factor was the increase in unintentional injuries, which includes overdose deaths. \n\t\n\t\n\tIn 2016, 63,632 people died from a drug overdose in the United States, the highest number on record and a 21 percent increase from the previous year. This was largely due to a rise in deaths associated with pharmaceutical opioids, including fentanyl and fentanyl analogs. This group of opioids, excluding methadone, was implicated in 19,413 deaths in the country, more than double the number in 2015. Evidence suggests that Canada is also affected, with a large number of overdose deaths involving fentanyl and its analogs in 2016. \n\t\n\t\n\tIn Europe, overdose deaths rose for the third consecutive year to reach the highest number on record in 2015 (the latest year for which data are available), with 8,441 deaths. Opioid-related deaths were responsible for the overall increase, with the presence of opioids (mostly heroin) detected in 79 percent of overdose deaths in 2015. Increases in overdose deaths were reported in Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom reported the highest number of overdose deaths in Europe, accounting for approximately one third (31 percent) of the total. In England and Wales, the number of drug misuse deaths for both men and women that were registered in 2016 was the highest since records began in 1993: 2,593 drug misuse deaths, mostly due to heroin and/or morphine.\n\t\n\t\n\tNon-fatal overdoses are substantially more common than fatal ones, with many drug users reporting that they have personally experienced a non-fatal overdose. Overdoses that are fatal make up only a very small proportion of all overdoses, an estimated 2–4 percent. Based on a global, systematic review of the literature, almost half (47 per cent; range: 17 to 68 per cent) of the drug users included in the studies reported that they had experienced a non-fatal overdose at least once in their lives, with almost one in six (17 percent; range: 4 to 38 percent) personally experiencing a non-fatal overdose in the past year.\n\t\n\n\nClick here to read the full article.\n\nCredits\n\nRegistered research DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.3533280\n\nResearch by: Don Karl Juravin | Don Juravin tweets | Don Juravin videos | Don Juravin page | Don Karl Juravin Linkedin | Don Juravin education | Don Juravin Pinterest | Don Juravin images | Don Juravin blogs | Don Karl Juravin Reddit | Don Juravin scholar citation | JURAVIN RESEARCH | Don Juravin writer | Don Karl Juravin blog | Google+ | Ted Talks | Don Juravin docs | Don Juravin answers | Don Karl Juravin local | Juravin blogging | Juravin posts | Don Juravin Reviews |\n\n
