Drug Overdoses Kill More Than Five Australians a Day: Report

Drug Overdoses Kill More Than Five Australians a Day: Report More than five Australians died from drugs overdoses every day in 2019, says a new report by the National Drug & Alcohol Research Centre (NDARC). According to the annual report released on Thursday, over 1,860 Australians lost their lives to drugs in 2019, with the majority of the deaths deemed unintentional. This marks Australia’s fifth year in a row where the country’s number of drug-induced deaths is higher than the earlier peak observed in the late 1990s. The report also found that cocaine-induced deaths have more than doubled since 2016, while the number of deaths owing to amphetamine is four times higher than a decade ago.
