Serial Painkillers

Happy 15th Anniversary Episode! Today marks the 15th episode since Generation Invincible's beginning. This week, we're exploring the prescription opioid and heroin epidemic in the United States. But first, an update on the status of the rights of 200,000 citizens of Virginia. On the agenda: the history of opioid and heroin use in the US, statistics on its use and fatality rate today, how prescription opioids and heroin affect communities differently depending on race, and why we still need prescription opioids today.
