Fentanyl deaths jumped 41% last month in Santa Clara County and officials report seven more overdose deaths have been recorded this month.
The District Attorney's Office said the fentanyl crisis is so bad that one local drug dealer even told his client to be sure he had Narcan on hand when he took the pill. Local Latino leaders said they are especially concerned after the latest numbers show Latinos account for the highest percentage of fentanyl deaths in Santa Clara County since 2019.
The Consul General of Mexico in San Jose said the consulate has constant educational talks about the crisis to ensure more Mexicans are aware of the dangers. Bologna said the second front of her country's war against fentanyl is with drug traffickers. The consulate said it wants to clear any misconceptions that Mexico is not doing its part on that front. Bologna touts the Mexican marines' increased confrontations with drug cartels and the recent seizure of more than 6 tons of fentanyl-laced pills.
Fentanyl consumption is so worrisome that Chief Assistant District Attorney Jay Boyarsky issued a warning about taking pills of any kind.
