Easy access to painkillers and heroin encourage drug addiction and overdose, leading to a lot of overdose deaths in 2015. According to reports from Marblehead (2017), “Public health officials have called the current opioid epidermic the worst drug crisis in American history, killing more than 33,000 people in 2015” (p . 1). The number of overdose death is alarming and will increase, and this is supported by Wooddruff. Woodruff (2016), also reports that about 300 people died of drug overdose, and the number of drug overdose death might increase in 2016. Both articles report that easy availability of cheap drugs like heroin and fentanyl has contributed to many overdose deaths.

Foode– much improved!! Remember, the P should be lowercase (p. 1). AND you only need to cite the LAST name Woodruff (2016) reports that….
Additionally, I wondered if there’s a way you could incorporate a transition sentence between “proper measures not taken.” and your Woodruff citation. What is the connection?
