Accidental overdosage due to fentanyl is a widespread social crisis because of the high ratio of street drugs that are now contaminated with fentanyl or worse (carfentanil). 

According to a report in AB, the age group with the most accidental overdose deaths are employed males aged between 30-34  living in suburbia, not the inner cities, earning an averaged income of $50-60K. They're dying because they have hidden their drug use from their families and peers, and use alone putting them at high risk for accidental overdosage and death because there is no one there to recognize the overdose symptoms and to inject naloxone before it is too late.

The opioid-addicted are not just those living in the street: they are also people with post-secondary training and professional occupations. Someone in your family circle or work circle may well be desperately fighting their addiction, without help, keeping it secret for fear of being ostracized.
