Clearly you’re bot talking about per capita harm?
- klardotsh 3y agoI don't know about "per-capita harm" but based on some loose research and opinions of doctors, alcohol is overwhelmingly more harmful overall (to self and to society) than anything else. The next drug on the list is heroin but it's not even close, followed closely by crack, and then crystal meth is an extremely distant fourth place followed by cocaine. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/206300#2 https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/206300#2
- ffhhttt 3y agoIs that because alcohol is a magnitude or so more widely used than any of the other (hard) drugs we consider to be harmful? That article is vague and I don’t think the overall methodology is that good, however it does say: “ The most harmful drugs to the individual are heroin, crack and crystal meth “ if the same number of people who regularly consume alcohol chose to use crack instead.. well I bet the situation would be a whole lot worse.
