I don't know if this was noted yet. I decided to be a sleepfag and walked away from the computer for a few hours for the first time since November.
It looks like Fentanyl is becoming more of a weapon in terms of quantites recently being seized and deployment (aerosol and touch), than as a black market money-making drug.
NEWS RELEASE: Fentanyl Overdose of ACSO Detectives
HAYWARD, CA- On Friday, June 22, 2018, about 1:30 pm, an ACSO Sergeant and Detective assigned to the Alameda County Narcotics Task Force were exposed to a lethal dose of fentanyl while conducting a drug investigation in a motel room.
Our preliminary review of this incident suggests when the detectives entered the room, they were exposed to an invisible or microscopic dust cloud of suspected fentanyl residue. This residue was likely connected to a supply of drugs found in the room.
Immediately upon entering the room, the ACSO Detective began to feel ill and was pulled outside. He then went unconscious and into respiratory distress. Realizing his partner was likely suffering the effects of an unintended exposure, the Sergeant administered one ampule of Narcan (Naxolone) to the detective. This initial dose had no effect so the Sergeant administered a second dose of Narcan to the Detective. This second dose reversed the effects of the overdose and the Detective regained consciousness and began breathing normally.
