In 2017, 577 accidental overdose deaths were recorded, a fourfold increase since 2010 and one of the highest per capita rates nationally. Police departments, emergency rooms and morgues were overwhelmed. The crisis spurred county health officials, city authorities, community groups and law enforcement agencies to cooperate like never before. In 2016 the Community Overdose Action Team (Coat) was created.
