Public Health Warning After Spike in Fentanyl Deaths

Public Health Warning After Spike in Fentanyl Deaths

Wisconsin’s public health managers have issued a public health advisory over the spike in fentanyl deaths.

The state’s Department of Health Services yesterday said fentanyl deaths in the state are up 97 percent since 2019. DHS says there were nearly 13 hundred fentanyl deaths last year. The state is pushing to distribute more test strips and more Narcan to help drug users know what they have, and then possibly help people come back after a fentanyl overdose.
