  1. Because the general public is whole and nurses are part of a whole (probably of the medical field as the whole). It is higher. I don’t know about you, but I read the numbers of deaths per year The nurses that are addicted is almost half of the deaths we are talking about. It is a big deal when nurses who take care of people are working and maybe high.

  2. The general public suffers from addiction at about an 8-10% rate, so 11% is not as bad as you think, especially for nurses.
