Can someone explain to me how fentanyl can be a crisis unless illegal drug use is rampant? Or maybe that is the reason why - if so, then, whay is this not the discussion point, and not a "fentanyl crisis?"

Fentanyl affects more victims than illegal drug users. Just innocently brushing past fentanyl can be deadly, so is a danger to us all.

Maybe itтАЩs semantics on my part. I believe itтАЩs a crisis because of the number of overdoses that have cost .. According to the CDC 107,375 people died of drug overdoses and drug poisonings from January 2021 to January 2022тАж67% of those deaths were from synthetic opioids like fentanyl. There was a National Prevention Day (Aug. 21, 2022. Sadly itтАЩs pretty much a crisis. I didnтАЩt mean for my words тАЬfentanyl crisisтАЭ to take away from Dr. MaloneтАЩs substack ..sorry if I gave that impression. My point is that this country that I love, has some very serious problems that the media would prefer we concentrate onтАж.like good sheeple.. and they use things like the NY spectacle to do so.

No trouble; I was not criticizing your semantics. I seriously wanted to know what is making fentanyl such a focal point of discussion these days. I mean, drug abuse is drug abuse; if drug abusers are succumbing due to fentanyl-laced illicit drugs then that's a risk that is theirs to bear - especially since the fentanyl issue is now well-publicized and should be known to anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

So the point of my inquiry was, why is so much time devoted to fenanyl? and what makes it such a fearsome drug? I think you answered the first question here (it's a media distraction to obfuscate the incompetence of the biden "administration" and the goals of globalist elites - I think you're right). Another poster was kind enough to enlighten me on the second part of the question -

Cheers!
