YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Alcohol remains one of the leading causes of preventable deaths in the U.S. Every year, more people die of alcohol-related causes than drug overdoses. While states have focused their attention on fighting the opioid epidemic, the problems with alcohol have largely been overlooked. William Brangham discussed how this is affecting Colorado with Denver Post reporter Meg Wingerter.
