"Opioid Overdose Outbreak Hits Virginia High School"

Seven students from Park View High School in Loudoun, Virginia, have suffered opioid-related overdoses in the past three weeks, with four of the incidents occurring on school grounds. The overdoses are believed to involve fentanyl, commonly found in counterfeit oxycodone pills. Law enforcement has investigated a total of 18 opioid overdoses involving minors in Loudoun County this year. The school district is taking steps to address the crisis, including providing naloxone training and support to staff and families. The opioid crisis continues to devastate communities across the country, prompting some states to provide Narcan, a medication that reverses the effects of opioids, to college students.
