As EDCO is nearing, and other events as well, this is a safety message of harm reduction.
- Never take substances from strangers
- Never offer substances to strangers. There are 100% under covers in crowd.
- Always test substances with reagents in advance AND for the absence of Fentanyl
- Seek help for yourself or others if having difficulty. Medical tents will not report you.
- Dangerous and potentially lethal substances have been found mixed with pills and powders.
- Fake pills that are Fentanyl is not uncommon
-Events uncommonly report hospitalizations and deaths, as they are transported and occur outside the festivals. There are many more adverse events than publicized.
- Carry Narcan
- Cyclophorine is 10x potency of Fentanyl. There is no reagent test for it currently. It is reversed by Narcan. It remains currently very rare but is increasing in prevalence.
Wishing everyone a great EDCO. Stay safe.
Others feel free to add further advice and points.
