Drug Overdoses and Mental Disorders Tied to Drop in Longevity in US

MedicalResearch.com Interview with: Dr. Preston Samuel Preston, Ph.D. Professor of Sociology University of Pennsylvania MedicalResearch.com: What is the background for this study? What are the main findings?  Response: Life expectancy at birth in the United States is low by international standards and has been declining in recent years. Our study aimed to identify how these trends differed by age, sex, cause of death, metropolitan status, and region. We found that, over the period 2009-11 to 2014-16, mortality rose at ages 25-44 in large metropolitan areas and their suburbs as well as in smaller metropolitan areas and non-metropolitan areas. Mortality at ages 45-64 also rose in all of these areas except large metropolitan areas. These were the ages responsible for declining life expectancy. Changes in life expectancy were particularly adverse for non-metropolitan areas and for women. The metropolitan distinctions in mortality changes were similar from region to region. The cause of death contributing most strongly to mortality declines was drug overdose for males and mental and nervous system disorders for women. MedicalResearch.com: What should readers take away from your report?  Response: Mortality in the working ages has been rising in the United States, particularly in non-metropolitan regions. These areas deserve special attention in public health efforts.  MedicalResearch.com: What recommendations do you have for future research as a result of this work?  Response: Identifying reasons for the poor U.S. performance in mortality, especially in the working ages and non-metropolitan areas, is of critical importance. Areas to be investigated include job losses in manufacturing and their mental health consequences, supply and demand features of the drug epidemic, the rise in obesity, and changing migration patterns.

#storytime I called the police today after I watched two armed men trying to break into somebody's home. They ended up walking toward where I was and were shouting "she's in there, you should have kicked in the door.". They paced back and forth until a car that had been circling the block pulled over. There were three more men in the car, and they were all shouting "where is she". After my other neighbor rolled his cameras back, the police noticed that one of those men was waving a pistol near the house they were banging on. So, what vexed me is, why the hell are five armed men chasing one woman? What did she do? What are they so extremely upset about? Why would they do this in broad daylight, when children could have easily been playing nearby? What the hell is going on in anchorage? Is this what happens when people allow drugs to take over? Sure is a bummer to have to call the cops on a sunny beautiful sunday. #anchorage #alaska #alaskanews #adn #ktuu #drugepidemic #gunviolence #men #women #murder #abduction #violence #apd #alaskapolice #anchoragecrime #news

"Gary Webb" Repost @conscious_awareness_ The corporate media and the government worked together to silence Gary Webb after he helped expose their crimes to the American public. He was murdered. Webb is best known for his "Dark Alliance" series, which appeared in The Mercury News in 1996. The series examined the origins of the crack cocainetrade in Los Angeles and claimed that members of the anti-communist Contra rebels in Nicaragua had played a major role in creating the trade, using cocaine profits to support their struggle. It also suggested that the Contras may have acted with the knowledge and protection of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The series provoked outrage, particularly in the Los Angeles African-American community, and led to four major investigations of its charges. The Los Angeles Times and other major papers published articles suggesting the "Dark Alliance" claims were overstated. After an internal review, The Mercury News ultimately published a statement in May 1997 acknowledging shortcomings in the series' reporting and editing. Webb resigned from The Mercury News in December 1997. He became an investigator for the California State Legislature, published a book based on the "Dark Alliance" series in 1998, and did freelance investigative reporting. Their efforts succeeded, costing Webb his career. On December 10, 2004, the journalist was found dead in his apartment, having ended his eight-year downfall with two .38-caliber bullets to the head. These days, Webb is being cast in a more sympathetic light. #garywebb #murdered #conspiracy #hero #thankyou #cia #americanpublic #wakeup #reported #report #reporter #corporatemedia #journalist #darkalliance #read #holysmokestv #holysmokes #holysmokescrafts #oneman #solo #crack #crackcocain #drugs #drugepidemic #justsayno #propoganda #warondrugs #drugs #arrest #southcentral (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3VTs2HBGuN/?igshid=c69w571h171w
