Community alcohol sales and opioid poisoning deaths: Alcohol serving space as a harm reduction opportunity by Cory M. Morton, Kristen Gilmore Powell, Michael Routhier, N. Andrew Peterson

“…This study investigates whether there is a community-level relationship between alcohol sales and opioid-related overdose deaths to inform the situating of harm reduction efforts in spaces most likely to reduce substance-related harms. Using an ecological design, zip code-level data for New Hampshire were combined from the US Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (sociodemographics), the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association (alcohol retail sales), and the NH Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (zip code level opioid poisoning deaths) to investigate the relationship between alcohol sales and opioid-related poisoning deaths at a community level in a state with the third highest rate of opioid poisoning deaths for the year the current study represents. …”
