The White House has revealed the American opioid epidemic is far larger than originally thought.
According to RedState.com, deaths as a result of the epidemic have doubled over the past decade.
However, previous studies didn’t attribute the deaths to opioids.
In 2016, over 64,000 died as a result of opioids--mainly due to overdoses of prescription pain medications, or heroin.
