  • As of the end of May, the number of opioid-related accidental and undetermined deaths is lower than the previous three-year average (2022-2024 May).
  • As of the end of May, non-fatal emergency department visit rates for opioid overdoses are lower than the previous three-year average (2022-2024 May).

We have an 8-week lag in reporting opioid overdose deaths. This minimizes the changes in numbers posted. 

This dashboard is updated on the second Wednesday of each month. If you need help understanding it, email [email protected].

  • Data segmented by race, age and sex
  • Various data notes

Like the report, the dashboard will be updated with new data monthly around the second Wednesday of the month.
