From 2019 to 2020, all three racial and ethnic groups experienced the largest annual increase in drug overdose death rates (56% among Black, 41% among Hispanic, and 28% among White persons). In 2020, the drug overdose death rate for White persons was the highest among all groups, followed by Black and Hispanic persons.
