Sports gambling called America's quiet epidemic
Original: Sports gambling is America’s quiet epidemic. It’s time to act like it.
A Michigan Daily column argues that sports gambling has become a quiet epidemic in the United States, spreading rapidly since legalization and inflicting harm on gamblers, young people in particular. The writer calls for a serious policy and public health response, saying the country should treat problem sports betting with the urgency of a genuine epidemic rather than ignoring its costs.
Why now: Sports betting has expanded rapidly across the US since legalization, and gambling addiction is drawing growing concern.
