Résumé :
Deaths from fentanyl and from psychostimulants are increasing (Kariisa et al., 2019; O’Donnell et al., 2020) and new psychoactive substances (NPS) continue to emerge (US Drug Enforcement Administration [DEA], 2020). Methods of drug administration are also rapidly changing, with record-high increases in vaping of cannabis among adolescents (Miech et al., 2019). Further, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) appears to be associated with drug overdoses and changes in drug use behavior (Volkow, 2020). While lagged indicators, such as national estimates of drug use, are useful for monitoring patterns of drug use and associated consequences, a national system to detect dangerous trends as they emerge is needed.
