If you destroy all the Mexican labs producing fentanyl, then Colombia will produce it. If not Colombia, then another country. Mexican cartels will move their operations somewhere else. It's too easy to make fentanyl. And the more you drive the production underground, the worse quality control, and the deadlier per pill. Therefore, the only solution is to reduce demand. I'm no expert. But things I can think of include mass media campaigns, such as those for anti-cigarettes, mass education programs starting with middle schoolers, and go from there. Also, it's not clear from reading the article whether the overdose deaths are from drug dealers mixing lethal doses of fentanyl into other drugs like cocaine or if people are taking fentanyl that was dosed incorrectly. If it's the former, then it's terrifying to know that any illegal drug could potentially have lethal doses of fentanyl in it.
