So thats roughly 3% of the population with opioid addiction and roughly 70% of od deaths involving fentanyl, within the last couple of years.
Yeah, exact numbers are hard to come by, but if you think a million+ people doesn’t count as ‘en masse’, well then I guess I’ll try some of whatever you’re smoking.
The latest official count of prescription fent abusers I can find is about half a million, from 2021… but that doesn’t count people who get it without a prescription, which is quite a lot.
And its also kind of fundamentally impossible to count homeless fent users.
I would know, I have both been homeless and used to manage the data analytics of a large network of homeless shelters and assistance providers.

You deliberately conflated fentanyl stats with those of more common opioids to make it appear that fentanyl is more commonly used in the US than it is.
