According to estimates, fentanyl has hundreds of times the potency of heroin and is 80 times more potent than morphine.
“It’s probably not something that most of the general public has to worry about other than it has no boundaries and so it reaches all aspects of life, whether it’s family, friends, co-workers, and things like that,” said Minot Police Department Sergeant, Caisee Sandusky.
North Dakota has the Drug Immunity Act to assist persons who want medical assistance without accusing them of a crime if they are battling opioid addiction.
