In our rotting, decaying society, there are literally hordes of rotting, decaying people in the streets. In this article, I am going to tell you about an immensely powerful drug that is taking America by storm. It makes people stagger about like zombies, and it also causes raw, gaping wounds that will literally rot away arms and legs if left untreated. Of course the U.S. was already facing an unprecedented drug crisis even before this new “zombie drug” started to spread like wildfire. More than a million Americans have died of a drug overdose since 1999, and the drug overdose epidemic has actually greatly accelerated within the past few years. At this point, more than 100,000 Americans a year are dying from a drug overdose. According to the CDC, someone dies from an overdose in this country every five minutes, and most of those drug overdose deaths are being caused by a drug known as fentanyl. An amount of fentanyl equivalent to a grain of rice is enough to kill a person, and right now fentanyl is actually the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45…

Fentanyl has become the leading cause of death for adults aged between 18 and 45, the CDC confirmed.
Former White House drug policy advisor Professor Keith Humphreys told The U.S. Sun: “The US has an established population of several million people who are already addicted to opioids.
“This creates a lucrative market for drug traffickers selling blends of opioids with other drugs included.”
Thanks to our unprotected borders, it is quite easy for other countries to absolutely flood our communities with fentanyl. For example, last week state troopers in Arizona discovered “enough fentanyl to kill nearly 800,000 people”…
Arizona state troopers last week seized enough fentanyl to kill nearly 800,000 people. The fentanyl had been smuggled in a pickup truck and made it nearly 150 miles north of the border, authorities said.
The stuff gets over the border so easily because the politicians in Washington have turned our border security into a joke.
The only reason why state troopers were able to intercept it 150 miles north of the border is because the vehicle it was being transported in was involved in a terrible accident.
Fentanyl was bad enough, but now it is being combined with an extremely powerful animal tranquilizer known as Xylazine…
Xylazine is thought to be 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more powerful than morphine, which is why it has taken over at the No. 1 drug in Philadelphia.
The combination of Fentanyl and Xylazine is known as “Tranq Dope”, and it is being sold on the streets of our major cities “for just a few dollars”…
When cut with fentanyl, xylazine has a bigger hit with it inducing a semi-conscious state which leaves people’s upper bodies hanging over their legs in the street and they move very slowly or not at all.
This is where it gets its name “zombie drug” from, however with a bigger hit comes a bigger need for addicts to buy it.
The drug is sold on the street for just a few dollars and is often injected into the body.
In this footage from the streets of Philadelphia, you can see what this “zombie drug” does to people.
