In the report, “Increases in Fentanyl-Related Overdose Deaths — Florida and Ohio, 2013–2015,” on page 845, in “FIGURE. Number of fentanyl-related law enforcement submissions* and overdose deaths, and rate of fentanyl prescriptions — Florida and Ohio, January 2013–June 2015,” in the Florida line chart, the second and third labels in the legend should be reversed. The second label should read “Fentanyl-related overdose deaths,” and the third label should read “Fentanyl-related law enforcement submissions.”

On page 846, in “TABLE 1. Demographic characteristics and toxicology findings for fentanyl-related overdose decedents — Florida, 2010–2012, 2013–2014, and January–June, 2015,” there were four errors. In the first row, “Total,” under 2010–2012, the mean annual rate should read 0.8; under 2013–2014, the mean annual rate should read 1.8; and under % change from 2010–2012 to 2013–2014, the value should read 121.9*. In the “Cocaine or Heroin” row, the % change from 2010–2012 to 2013–2014 should read 138.8*.
