The American College of Medical Toxicology (ACMT) has issued a statement regarding Florida’s SB 718 legislation that categorizes the reckless exposure of first responders to fentanyl as a second-degree felony. It is the position of ACMT that this type of legislation perpetuates misinformation, potentially hindering emergency responders’ effectiveness and causing delays in life-saving care for overdose victims.
