If any of this is fentanyl then it is very accurate to say that it leads to hundreds of thousands of deaths. And we've seen a very good decrease in fentanyl deaths -- though that could also be attributed to the higher availability of Narcan.

Fentanyl remains a primary driver of overdose deaths, with synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl, accounting for 60% of all overdose deaths in the United States last year, totaling about 48,000 people. While opioid overdose deaths remain high, there has been a decrease in fentanyl-involved deaths from 2023 to 2024. More National Fentanyl Overdose Data The CDC reports a 35.6% decrease in synthetic opioid overdose deaths from 2023 to 2024.

>Fentanyl remains a primary driver of overdose deaths

You missed a few steps here: fentanyl isn't injecting itself magically into drug users when it arrives in the USA.

>we've seen a very good decrease in fentanyl deaths -- though that could also be attributed to the higher availability of Narcan.

And also just the fact there are less and less fentanyl drug users still alive.

BTW, what happened to the members of the Sackler family?
