The Lack of Tech Jobs for African Americans-Opioids and Car Crashes

Stanford Chihuri, MPH is a Biostatistician/Data Analyst and Epidemiologist at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. Mr. Chihuri was the co-author of a study that found evidence of prescription opioids in fatal car crashes in the United States has increased 700% in the past two decades. He said women drivers and those over age 65 were more likely to be involved in opioid-related fatal crashes. The study also found significant numbers of drivers under the influence of opioids also had alcohol and other drugs in their systems.
