	Description:		Every day, more than 115 people in the United States die after overdosing on opioids. The misuse of, and addiction to, opioids — including prescription pain relievers, heroin, and synthetic opioids such as fentanyl — is a serious national crisis that affects public health as well as social and economic welfare. But, how did it become such a big problem? For some insight into that, we turn to award-winning journalist Sam Quinones, who’s the author of the book, “Dreamland: The True Tale of America’s Opiate Epidemic”.
