NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Health Minister Dr. Michael Darville asserted Thursday afternoon that the country is not grappling with a Fentanyl epidemic, although he raised concerns about the “possibility in some concerns of fentanyl-related deaths in country.”
Darville spoke to reporters days after local psychiatrist Dr. David Allen noted that fentanyl-related deaths are up to 15 in country.
Allen further expressed concerns about a pending epidemic as he referenced the escalating fentanyl related-death toll in the United States that U.S. officials have described as devastating.
Darville noted that he intends to meet with Dr. Allen on the issue.
