| Core Tip |
Population based deaths from substance abuse and firearm injury increased during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in the United States. The progressive increase in the crude rate of firearm injury and substance abuse death seen during the early part of COVID-19 pandemic continues to persist, with a higher impact in Black/African American, American Indian or Alaska Natives, and those in United States South Central and rural areas. These morality trends correlate with changes in organ donation resulting in rise in donors who died from drug overdose and firearm injury from 2014-2021, with a significant increase seen during the COVID-19 pandemic. |
