Where else are they happening?


IDK. A few data sets that might make for good starting points:

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_prevalenc...

This data isn't up-to-date and the list is for opiates, not opioids But this still gives you a good sense for which countries to look up. IMO opiates are closer to marijuana or cocaine than to heroin -- i.e., an otherwise healthy, happy, intelligent, and drug-educated person using in a purely recreational context is unlikely to die or even become severely addicted. Different from opioids in that respect.

2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opioid_epidemic#Outside_North_...

Not much info, but we get pointers to some of the same countries at the top of the opiates list.
