Officials in Marin County have sent out a health advisory following what they say is a concerning uptick in overdose deaths by fentanyl in the past two weeks.
Drug overdoses are the leading cause of death for people under 55 in Marin County.
Providers who work with people who use drugs are asked to share the following tips:
Keep Narcan handy and remember that you might need to use multiple doses. You can get Narcan free at odfreemarin.org/narcan/.
Test drugs before using. Fentanyl strips are available at the Ritter Center in San Rafael.
"Start low and go slow," meaning start with a low dose.
Do not use drugs alone. If no one will be close by while you are using, call Never Use Alone at (800) 484-3731.

As long as it’s the “right” people dying, I don’t see a reason to make this a priority item.
Thanks, China!
1. I do NOT run with persons who use drugs.
2. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE OR CARRY NARCAN...
3. SELF-INDUCED PROBLEM-—AND NOT MY PROBLEM.
Kinda my thinking..............
More undesirables offing themselves. Drug abuse is a CHOICE. Bad choices can have bad outcomes.
Meanwhile back to the latest Bad Man Orange Misinformation........
Last time I went to Marin, it was upscale and very expense to lice there. So are the rich kids using fentanyl? Or newly rich dealers moving there?
