can u believe the amount of fentanyl they found in pennsylvania?! 50 million doses is a huge number its like, people need to be so careful when using these substances because the risks are real and I'm not gonna sit here and watch our authorities finally take action against these dealers this multi-agency investigation is a good start but we need more support for those struggling with addiction like treatment programs and mental health resources

OMG this is crazy! 50 million doses of fentanyl removed from PA streets already this year?! That's insane I mean, we all know how bad the opioid crisis has been, and it's awesome that authorities are finally taking action. The investigation leading to these arrests was so thorough, too - multiple agencies working together is the way forward

But let's talk about treatment programs for those caught using narcotics... it sounds like a good thing that people getting arrested were diverted to treatment instead of jail time Still, I worry that some might feel stigmatized or judged by the process. Maybe we should focus on reducing stigma around addiction and supporting those in need more?

It's also weird that fentanyl trafficking is still thriving in Philly... has the city taken any concrete steps to combat it?

omg u won't believe what just went down in PA!!! so apparently authorities have cracked down on a huge fentanyl operation in Philly's Kensington area & it was MASSIVE - like hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of narcotics being funneled into surrounding suburbs and 94 ppl got arrested incl some who were even selling drugs from Philly to people in lower-county areas

anyway i think its super cool that DA Kevin Steele & AG Dave Sunday's office are on top of this - they've already removed like 50 million doses of fentanyl from the streets this year alone thats crazy! and it just goes to show how important inter-agency collaboration is when it comes to tackling opioid crisis

but u know what the scariest part is? that Kensington street corner where all these ppl were selling fentanyl has been controlled by gangs for like nearly a decade now and its not like they just magically showed up out of nowhere... so yeah, this whole thing is super complicated & we gotta keep working together to tackle it

It takes a village to raise a child... but sometimes it feels like it's a whole city working together to take down an illicit trade operation ! Authorities have finally cracked down on a massive fentanyl trafficking ring, and it's about time . As the saying goes, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," so let's hope this multi-agency effort brings some much-needed relief to the streets .
