Gas Station Drugs — is anyone in the U.S. actually tracking this as a public health issue?

Gas Station Drugs — is anyone in the U.S. actually tracking this as a public health issue?

I was today years old when I learned about Gas Station Drugs in the U.S., thanks to John Oliver's episode. I have so many questions about this, but mostly just can't believe this is being permitted!

I know there have been various alerts and some state-level action (e.g. Alabama's tianeptine ban), but I'm curious: are any U.S. public health departments actually tracking metrics or outcomes specifically tied to this issue?
