The report released last week, titled,"Substance Use Trends in San Francisco Through 2021," showed 625 people died from opioid, cocaine, or methamphetamine overdoses in the city.
That marked an 11 percent decline from 2020's numbers. But overdose deaths in 2021 were still 41 percent above 2019's numbers. The health department said in a news release that last year's numbers remain at crisis level. "The Substance Use Trends report compels us to do more citywide to alleviate the overdose crisis in San Francisco's communities and save more lives," said Director of Health Dr. Grant Colfax."Our new strategic overdose plan builds on the progress that's been made and pushes our public health response forward by defining our goals and public health strategies that will make the most impact.
