Afghan drug crisis grows with young addicts and limited treatment
UN data show opiate use in Afghanistan has doubled in five years with nearly 3 percent of 15 to 64 year olds addicted. Afghanistan supplies about 90 percent of the world opium and faces scarce treatment, though some progress includes a drop in cultivation and provincial moves toward poppy-free status. At Santa Amar center in Kabul women and children seek help, including infants as young as one month old.
