Fentanyl overdose: US teens fastest growing group to die
Teen overdose deaths in the US have reached unprecedented levels, driven by the synthetic opiate fentanyl. Despite a decline in overall teen drug use, fentanyl-laced counterfeit pills have led to a surge in fatalities among teenagers. The issue is exacerbated by Mexican drug cartels smuggling fentanyl into the US and producing pills that mimic prescription medications. Recent seizures in California and New York highlight the widespread nature of the problem. The US has a significantly higher overdose death rate compared to the global average, with experts attributing the rise in teen overdose deaths to fentanyl rather than increased drug use during the pandemic.
