Medical officials in Ohio said at least 10 people just died from drug overdoses in only 26 hours, calling it an"unusually high number" for the area in a such a short period of time.
"As of about 10am this morning we have had 10 people die of overdoses in about 26 hours. This is an unusually high number for our county in this period of time," the office said in a statement Sunday."At this time we know fentanyl can be mixed in to cocaine and methamphetamine. These can be deadly combinations for those who are using."
In its statement on Sunday, the Franklin County Coroner's Office said residents with family or friends that might be at risk for overdoses should have Naloxone, the emergency overdose reversal drug, on hand as a precaution.
