20. Millions of opioid pills poured into southeast Utah's sparsely populated coal country

Do you hear that Utah and West Virginia? Why can't they be more god fearing like California?

Boyd’s Family Pharmacy in Castle Dale shares a cinder block building with regional health officials. Until this year, it was the only pharmacy in Emery County, which is home to about 11,000 people in Utah’s coal country.

But the small Main Street shop ordered 4.8 million oxycodone and hydrocodone pills to dispense from 2006 to 2012, according to data recently obtained by The Washington Post.

That’s the fourth highest number of pills delivered to more than 1,000 pharmacies statewide. It’s the only rural one in the top 10, a list dominated by pharmacies on the urban Wasatch Front and in southern Utah’s booming St. George.

Carbon County, Emery County’s neighbor, follows close behind, with stores in Price ranked 11th and 12th. The county’s 11 pharmacies together received over 15 million oxycodone and hydrocodone pills from 2006 to 2012 — enough for each resident to receive 105 pills per year.
