How Heroin Flows Over the Border and Into Suburbia - NBC News
Highway 290 going through Chicago is called the Heroin Highway.

Another health related issue? I guess I'm not the only one interested in health issues.
However, I wonder why the worrying is so selective. Many more people die each year from doctor prescribed drugs at hospitals and clinics etc.. Many deaths, for example, are due to prescription errors and drug mix-ups at hospitals. Some deaths may be due to patients making errors themselves.
