# August 11 reported carfentanil exposure at FCI Hazelton

What the local press ran on this, in one place. I have not written it up beyond the headlines, and the links go to the outlets themselves.

Being treated after a suspected exposure is not, by itself, proof of a toxic dose. The repeated-exposure reporting is still worth watching because it points to a mail-handling and workplace-safety problem.
