someone dumps fentanyl into the air ducts... but one prisoner has already taken the antidote, narcan, which was smuggled in previously... he mimics the symptoms... they evacuate the affected staff and prisoners, take them to the hospital, and he makes his escape.

Jailbreak? but one prisoner has already taken the antidote, narcan, which was smuggled in previously... he mimics the symptoms... they evacuate the affected staff and prisoners, take them to the hospital, and he makes his escape. Prisoners being transported will be escorted. Their life expectancy if they do try an escape is pretty low considering the events of the day. Nobody will be in much of a mood for bull shit and this isn't a part of the country where anyone will be terribly concerned about a use of force on someone trying to escape even on a good day. Inmates hate it at RCI and Lucasville because they're surrounded by hillbillies with guns, among other reasons. I'm betting on a botched smuggling attempt. I don't remember if RCI has central air or not. Doesn't now, that's for dang sure. |

You can get Narcan over the counter in some states now. It's pricey though. Anybody know of a place to get it cheap/free in Texas? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Would I be safe in assuming a gas mask would prevent inhalation? I don't know what they are capable of filtering..
Or can you be affected by skin contact also? |

20+ transported to local ER, 170+ is what I'm hearing that were treated on scene. No word on casualties, information is coming out very slowly, press conference with local hospital & OSP and maybe state prisons at or around 1.30 today. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Also, Narcan is not guaranteed to prevent overdose. Depending on the dosage of fentanyl it will outlast the naloxone. Once that wears off you can slip right back into OD when your opiate receptors open up again. Dangerous stuff, but not on the same level as carfentanil.

So if a fentanyl or related attack were to take place in a major area, with significant airborne dispersal, a SCBA wouldn’t be enough to protect you? You’d need a hazmat suit in conjunction to prevent transdermal absorption?
Sheesh...I guess there are some things you just can’t prepare for. Other than by not living in a city |

Sounds like it is time to add Narcan to medical aid bags to join the bleeder kits
If you were in a contaminated area, administered narcan to yourself/family member, would self egress be possible? Tyvek suits, N95 masks help? Spooky |

In for verification......A prison seems a strange target. Great way to test lethality and delivery methods. The radical in Canada who's brother was in a coma from it had enough to Kill many thousands of people..... They played it off like it was a run of the mill drug bust..... only it was more likely a terrorist cache. |

Would I be safe in assuming a gas mask would prevent inhalation? I don't know what they are capable of filtering.. Or can you be affected by skin contact also? View Quote One officer needed 3 doses to counteract a tiny amount of Carfentanil that got on his uniform during a bust. Didn't affect him on site. Someone mentioned some 'dirt' on his uniform back at the station, he brushed it off with his hand without thinking about it. Symptoms hit very quickly. Luckily for him, it happened at the station. If he'd made it home, it would've potentially killed him or his wife. SOP now is to avoid ANY contact with unknown powdered substances. Protection would require at the very least N95 or better respirator + Hazmat suit for powdered sources. Full self-contained air supply + Hazmat suit depending on mode of aerosolized delivery (eg. The way the Russkies used it). Decon of the prison is going to be a PITA. |

So serious question....
If fentanyl and the other drug are so potent that exposure to it (even incidental) results in od and death, how the heck can druggies take it? |

Quoted:
I asked that in another thread a while ago. Apparently it's useless for that purpose because you need to keep administering narcan until the opioid has been metabolized from your system, which takes a lot longer than the initial dose of narcan will last.

The potential purpose of EDC'ing Narcan is to dose yourself/affected individual, to keep them alive long enough to get to medical help/observation. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

As ConKeeper mentioned you may need more than one from either a dosing or redosing perspective depending on what your use case is. Shelf life is about two years, but it depends on how fresh of a package you get. |

View Quote Symptoms would be hard to mimic, probably could fool initial triage though. However, escaping from the ER in full cuffs and chains is harder than it may seem. Looking forward to more facts on the case, sounds more plausible as a mistake than an attack at th his point, but anything is possible. Fentanyl isnt a great choice for chemical warfare either, but that doesn't stop people from trying. |

Fentynal should carry the death penalty if you are dealing that shit. That stuff is extremely lethal.
