Overdoses In Scotland And The United States
Uploaded:
This is inspired by a New York Times (NYT) article article about rates of opioid overdoses in Scotland.1 The article discusses rates of opioid and heroin use in Scotland, presents visualisations from the NYT original piece, and makes a brief comparison to rates in the United States (US).
- The article is a fantastic piece of journalism, well written with beautiful graphs and photography. I would recommend it to all. The graphs presented are from the article.
