The lethal opiod [fentanyl] has been popping up in unexpected drugs [bought on the black market]. “Everywhere, it’s been in every drug we’ve been testing,” says Aasen. Health experts says testing drugs has never been so important...In the last two months, about 70 percent of the popular party drug MDMA came up positive for fentanyl. Cocaine had been tainted with the opiod about 50 percent of the time.

Festivals: A chance for music lovers to let loose and have fun, but with record numbers of fentanyl-related deaths, party goers will see a lot more naloxone kits on Island campgrounds. A Victoria Pharmacy says the lethal opiod has been popping up in unexpected drugs. “When we first starting doing this we kind of expected to see it in heroin,” says pharmacist Jarred Aasen at STS Pain, “but when we started tested cocaine and MDMA that was surprisingly.”
