Harvest House Atlantic alone reversed 309 overdoses in a single week, now handling 28-30 cases daily, forcing them to bring in extra staff and security. Naloxone is still vital, but may not fully counteract medetomidine’s effects. Health officials are rushing to deploy a new, smaller rescue vehicle to meet the surge, as communities strain under the weight of this overwhelming, fast-moving emergency.
