To effectively address the opioid epidemic, states must adopt a four-pronged, public health approach with specific actions to:
Prevent opioid misuse and addiction
Reduce overdose deaths and other harmful consequences
Improve opioid addiction treatment
Improve addiction care in the criminal justice system
States that make this investment will not only be able to overcome the current opioid epidemic but also will be in a better position to prevent or face down future drug crises.

”Loose or lax ligaments in turn are not capable of supporting joints as effectively as healthy ones, making the affected individual prone to further injury as well as compensation for the weakness using other parts of the body. Afflicted individuals may improve over time and lose some of their juvenile hyperlaxity as they age. Individuals over age 40 often have recurrent joint problems and almost always have chronic pain. Back patients with ligamentous laxity in the area of the spine may also experience osteoarthritis and disc degeneration.
In the case of extreme laxity, or hypermobility, affected individuals often have a decreased ability to sense joint position, which can contribute to joint damage. The resulting poor limb positions can lead to the acceleration of degenerative joint conditions. Many hypermobility patients have osteoarthritis, disorders involving nerve compression, chondromalacia patellae, excessive anterior mandibular movement, mitral valve prolapse, uterine prolapse and varicose veins.”
