(The Center Square) â More people died this year from drug overdoses in San Francisco than from the coronavirus, according to data reported by the city and state.
The Drug Overdose Prevention and Education Project, a taxpayer-funded city program, reports that 621 people died of a drug overdose this year in San Francisco â roughly five times more than the number of people who died from or with the coronavirus, 173.
The number of overdose deaths was tallied by the DOPE project based on the number of times individuals report using Narcan, an emergency medication that can reverse an opiate overdose.
Officials say the overdose deaths are probably higher because they exclude deaths unreported or related to requesting Narcan. Narcan was used more than 3,000 times from January to November to save drug addictsâ lives.
