Deaths per year, United States. Different measures — modelled attribution vs death-certificate counts. Never sum the rows.

HONEST

Cannabis is not risk-free.

0

cannabis-involved ER visits, US, 2023

0

alcohol-involved ER visits, US, 2023

Harms show up in ERs, not morgues. SAMHSA DAWN.

Cannabis-linked psychosis risk is real science the dataset has not quantified yet. It sits on the open list, not in the charts.

How the numbers are made

METHOD

Modelled or reported. Named, never blurred.

Reported

Counts straight from mortality records and surveys. NCHS overdose data, NSDUH, DAWN.

Modelled

Estimates attributing deaths across conditions. CDC ARDI, the 2014 Surgeon General report. Broader, larger, different.

Every figure carries its verification status. Seeded numbers get cross-checked before they flip.

CITED

Every figure ships with its source.
