I doubt Switzerland has the same issues as the US, but fentanyl can be absorbed through a latex glove. I switched my gloves to nitrile. Added bonus- don't have to worry about latex allergies.
This is 100% false.

Fentanyl risks via skin contact is a myth.
Nitrile gloves are important for many reasons (allergies are a big one as you mentioned), but fentanyl isn't one of them.
Huh. I work around a lot of people who use and that's what we were told. I carry Narcan in my bag as well.
One of the cops that does security told us that they had some powder they found test positive for carfentanyl about a week ago, so I'm expecting the OD's to come around any day now.
Yep. The whole "Fentanyl is killing first responders" myth is absolute bonkers and in a lot of cases you can't even find any fentanyl whatsoever.

In the end it is nothing more than a marketing scam paired with intentionally goverment misinformation.
Pure copaganda from big babies who had a panic attack
