A July 12 health alert issued by the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner informed the public that Cuyahoga County has suffered at least 15 suspected overdose deaths in just four days.
CLEVELAND — Waverly Willis knows first hand what it's like to deal with addiction and homelessness, and reports northeast Ohio overdose dangers have reached a peak this summer.
They’re giving me a front row seat to let me know that things have absolutely gotten worse," Willis said. “I’m noticing that the people are getting a lot younger, but it’s not just going into the street people, but college kids.” "People are buying counterfeit pills and Fentanyl is mixed in those counterfeit pills, and they actually look like real pills," Osiecki said. “It’s really important, we want people to know that really need to test their drugs, they need to know what they’re taking if they’re taking any illicit drugs.”
The Cuyahoga County Diversion Center is also available and has detox services."So if a person is ready for treatment call the hotline at 216-623-6888 and get a brief screening to see if they’re eligible for the diversion center, open 24-hours-a-day," Osiecki said."Walk-in detox services are also available at St. Vincent Charity Hospital."
