And in other news, "2017 saw largest total population in US history".
How about "2017 saw highest increase in death due to alcohol, drugs and suicide in US history"?

I'm not sure what population has to do with it. The headline and the PDF itself talk about the

Headline says "rate of death", implying a correction for total population.
