A Centralized CDC Resource
CDC has launched a centralized overdose resource, bringing public health data and prevention information together.
Three Surveillance Systems
The channel draws from SUDORS, DOSE, and the National Vital Statistics System to present overdose-related information.
Fatal and Nonfatal Trends
It covers fatal and nonfatal overdoses, with visualizations that let visitors examine national and state-level trends.
Prevention Resources Together
The resource presents evidence-based prevention strategies alongside CDC programs, tools, and dashboards.
Who Can Use It
CDC says communities and public health professionals can use accessible information to monitor changing patterns and inform prevention decisions.
A Provisional Estimate
CDC cited a provisional estimate predicting 67,798 U.S. overdose deaths for the 12 months ending March 2026.
A Rolling 12-Month Measure
That estimate was 12.3% lower than the same period a year earlier; it covers a rolling period, not calendar 2026.
