The US is currently in a fentanyl epidemic and China accounts for 97% of the fentanyl seized in international mail in the US. This has became such an issue that the US that they had a talk with the China government to try and prevent the international sale of fentanyl. Over the last six months many of the distributors in China who were easy to find online have seemed to shut down their operations, disconnecting numbers which had previously reached salespeople offering to mail the drugs to the United States. Since in the US fentanyl is a serious issues this is a good start to begin cutting down the use and overdoses rates. I would relate this issue with bio since fentanyl can be very dangerous mixed with substances and taken can lead to death or overdose.
