Show Notes

Hamilton County sees record low overdose deaths, with 194 in 2025, a significant drop from the peak of 567 in 2017. Coroner Sammarco attributes this to regional efforts in addiction treatment and prevention. However, falls lead with 138 deaths, outpacing other causes. Sammarco urges a fall prevention program and warns of the emerging synthetic opioid cyclorphine, found in 52 cases since August.
