other drugs. though fentanyl abuse and deaths are a nationwide problem, some states are especially hard hit. the darkest colors on the map represent the greatest number of deaths per 100,000 with graham zero being appalachia, west virginia in particular. i will talk to a medical professional from there as well. throughout the hour we will talking about how we will address this publicly behind you see there from the substance abuse and mental care services administration. 162 health, one 862 health. someone to talk to, a resource to john perhaps. certainly not the only one. we will talk about the government s response and this person, cindy lindsey graham and a health executive. but just about everyone here has been victimized by the crisis in their own ways. those stories we hope will be at the heart of the hour ahead. with me here tonight is aaron rockwell, two years ago, his son died. he was a college freshman. she is here with her son hayden who joins us. also april is w
