The Washington Post (10/17, Hicks, Craighill) reported a Washington Post-University of Maryland poll has found that “nearly 3 in 10 Marylanders say they have a close friend or family member who was or is addicted to opioids such as heroin and prescription pain pills.” The study highlights “the effect of a surge in opioid use that Gov. Larry Hogan (R) has described as a crisis and vowed to address.”
