What an obscure meme that requires you to have read a specific and not very noteworthy news article.
I mean, this is a recurring thing in the US, it's not just this one specific article.
Man I read a shit ton of news articles and I’ve never even heard mention of this.
That's surprising. It's been everywhere in the news.
This is not about a "specific and not very newsworthy news article". This is about a widespread panic that has become so pervasive, the NIH has had to publish papers debunking it.
And yet American news orgs still take cops at face value when they claim to have overdosed from mere contact with fentanyl...
No? They do this routinely, there are lots of videos out there of cops heading panic attacks and blaming fent.
This is a recurring thing in the US. If you follow US News you've probably seen a number of articles like this one in the last few years.
