Paramedic Reacts – Deputy “Fentanyl OD” PSA

My reaction to the video released by the San Diego Sheriff’s Department that shows what they claim is an overdose after the deputy comes in contact with Fentanyl. Fentanyl OD from a contact exposure is next to impossible and I intend to break down what is seen in this video to help correct a common medical myth within the law enforcement community. This video is not intended to belittle or harass this deputy or the department.
