    didn’t it turn out to be like 10 kg of fentanyl total, ever?

      From Canada. The total amount imported or possibly even illicitly produced in the US every month is many many times that.

      I don’t know, but I will say that while 10kg doesn’t sound like a lot, for something like fentanyl that’s millions of doses.

        A quick Google search tells me that a “very high” and possibly lethal dose is two milligrams, so 10 kilograms of the stuff can kill five million people.
