Worth) about the new front for the “War on Drugs.”  Since 2020, the Dallas – Ft. Worth Metroplex saw a 485% increase in fentanyl related deaths. These overdoses are not what you think. Rather than affecting the opioid drug-addicted population, these are accidental overdoses from the lacing of what appears to be legal, prescription drugs – usually bought online or from foreign sources – or the lacing of recreational drugs like marijuana or cocaine. Please share this podcast with your friends, children, and grandchildren so that they do not fall victim to this trend of fentanyl entering nontraditional sources.
