Florida spring break goers given Fentanyl warning from concerned street teams
Fox News
Community activists have been canvassing South Florida to warn of the dangers of Fentanyl after a group of West Point cadets overdosed on the drug.
Street teams stood under the blistering sun, handing out beads, pamphlets and samples of naloxone, a drug known by the brand name Narcan, which can revive overdose victims.
"We weren’t sure how people would react," said Thomas Smith, director of behavioral health services for The Special Purpose Outreach Team, a local mobile medical program. "But the spring breakers have been great. Some say, ‘I don’t do drugs, but my buddy sometimes does something stupid.’ They are happy to get Narcan."
