The Opioid Overdose Crisis

Every day, more than 130 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. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the total "economic burden" of prescription opioid misuse alone in the United States is $78.5 billion a year, including the costs of healthcare, lost productivity, addiction treatment, and criminal justice involvement.

  • Roughly 21 to 29 percent of patients prescribed opioids for chronic pain misuse them.
  • Between 8 and 12 percent develop an opioid use disorder.
  • An estimated 4 to 6 percent who misuse prescription opioids transition to heroin.
  • About 80 percent of people who use heroin first misused prescription opioids.
  • Opioid overdoses increased 30 percent from July 2016 through September 2017 in 52 areas in 45 states.
  • The Midwestern region saw opioid overdoses increase 70 percent from July 2016 through September 2017.
  • Opioid overdoses in large cities increase by 54 percent in 16 states.

In the late 1990s, pharmaceutical companies reassured the medical community that patients would not become addicted to prescription opioid pain relievers, and healthcare providers began to prescribe them at greater rates. This subsequently led to widespread diversion and misuse of these medications before it became clear that these medications could indeed be highly addictive.3,4 Opioid overdose rates began to increase. In 2017, more than 47,000 Americans died as a result of an opioid overdose, including prescription opioids, heroin, and illicitly manufactured fentanyl, a powerful synthetic opioid.1That same year, an estimated 1.7 million people in the United States suffered from substance use disorders related to prescription opioid pain relievers, and 652,000 suffered from a heroin use disorder (not mutually exclusive)

What Is A Drug Test?

A drug test is a technical analysis of a biological specimen, for example urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, and/or oral fluid/saliva to determine the presence or absence of specified parent drugs or their metabolites. Major applications of drug testing include detection of the presence of performance enhancing steroids in sport, employers and parole/probation officers screening for drugs prohibited by law (such as cannabis, cocaine, methamphetamine, and heroin) and police officers testing for the presence and concentration of alcohol (ethanol) in the blood commonly referred to as BAC (blood alcohol content). BAC tests are typically administered via a breathalyzer while urinalysis is used for the vast majority of drug testing in sports and the workplace. Numerous other methods with varying degrees of accuracy, sensitivity (detection threshold/cutoff), and detection periods exist. A drug test may also refer to a test that provides quantitative chemical analysis of an illegal drug, typically intended to help with responsible drug use.

Peters is an Unincorporated community in Austin County in the U.S. state of Texas. No longer marked on maps, the tiny community is situated along State Highway 36 (SH 36) 5.8 miles (9.3 km) north of Sealy. The settlement was founded along a railroad line around 1880 but decreased in population after the 1920s. The BNSF Railway still exists but there are currently only a few homes, a Boy Scout camp and two churches in the immediate area.

The community of Peters is situated at 29°51?36?N 96°11?12?W? / ?29.86000°N 96.18667°W? / 29.86000; -96.18667. This location is 5.8 miles (9.3 km) north of Sealy and 7.7 miles (12.4 km) south of Bellville on SH 36 at Peters San Felipe Road. The location is bracketed by Farm to Market Road 949 which is 1.0 mile (1.6 km) north on SH 36 and Farm to Market Road 331 which is 1.6 miles (2.6 km) south. The BNSF Railway runs parallel with SH 36 between Sealy and Bellville. On the west side of SH 36, Peters San Felipe Road goes south-southwest 0.5 miles (0.8 km) to end at Trenckmann Road. On the east side of SH 36, Peters San Felipe Road heads 6.3 miles (10.1 km) southeast to San Felipe. Two places of worship, the All Around Cowboy Church and the Christian City Fellowship are on the east side of SH 36 just to the south of Trenckmann Road. Camp Brosig, owned by the Boy Scouts of America, is located nearby at 1893 Trenckmann Road 1.6 miles (2.6 km) to the northwest of SH 36.

Austin County was first settled by Anglo-Americans in the 1820s, but Peters did not come into existence until the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway was built between Sealy and Bellville in the 1880s. A station on the railroad, the community received a post office in 1883 and was named for Albert Peters, an early settler. The population reached as high as 125 in 1925 but declined to 70 by 1943. The post office closed in the 1940s at a time when there were two local businesses. In 1968 there were about 100 in the area. In the early 1980s the community boasted a hospital, three commercial establishments, a church and a clubhouse. From 1990 to 2000, there were approximately 95 persons living in the area.

Peters Community sign is on State Highway 36, looking to the southeast.
