    Default Rural Florida county shocked by fentanyl deaths over holiday

    TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A small, largely rural county west of Florida’s capital saw an unheard-of spike in deadly drug overdoses believed to be caused by fentanyl mixed with other illegal drugs, a sign that the national problem is becoming even more far-reaching.

    Then last Friday, calls to emergency services began flooding in. Over the holiday weekend, nine people died and another nine were treated over suspected fentanyl overdoses. It's the latest in a rash of fentanyl deaths around the nation.

    “It's shaken the entire community. I feel their pain,” Young said Wednesday. “I'm really treating this like we had a hurricane coming into town. It means that much to me that we could lose people in such a short period of time.”

    Gadsden County is largely known for its vegetable and livestock farms, historic Southern buildings and antique shops.

    Fentanyl is a national emergency, that is not being addressed by our Failed Elite Class, almost certainly being driven by China as part of their massive program to destroy America from the inside.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Mexico and India are much greater sources of Fentanyl.
