The number of deaths involving both stimulants and opioids, and stimulants and fentanyl in San Luis Obispo County grew between 2019 and 2021.
The number of deaths involving both types of substance in 2019 may be an undercount due to death data not always specifying combination of drugs that caused a particular death. 2022 data is still being analyzed. Note: Fentanyl is a type of opiate and is included in the stimulants and opioids death count.
