Shannon Monnat, associate professor of sociology and Lerner Chair for Public Health Promotion, was interviewed on CBS News Radio's "America: Changed Forever" podcast about drug abuse and the role the COVID-19 pandemic may have played in last year's drug-related deaths.

"COVID-19 has really contributed to a perfect storm of factors that have created the worst drug overdose conditions in the history of this country," says Monnat. Her interview begins at 21:54.
