Unbelievable. This is literally not possible with fentanyl and has been debunked by basically every expert in the field. Maybe fact check before just posting a video a police department gave you. Linking to my story about why this narrative is bullshit. inverse.com/mind-body/fent… 
Don’t take my word for it, take *the American College of Medical Toxicology and the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology’s* word for it
Anyway, I think it’s great that CNN uncritically parrots drug war propaganda, just A+ journalism
If law enforcement (and/or the general public) think simply touching or inhaling small amounts of fentanyl can kill them, they are less likely to help users in need. This lie will get people killed.
(There are other reasons it’s harmful, but right now I’m mad about this one)

The only question it raises is why police are allowed to perpetuate this lie and why some news outlets regurgitate it without fact checking. There is no debate in the medical/scientific community about whether or not someone can OD on fentanyl this way
