Meth bought in Louisiana may be contaminated with Zika virus, police say

I don't know a lot about meth or Zika but how would it get contaminated. What else can be contaminated with Zika? The facebook post shows a pipe. I would think burning it would kill the virus. I would think shooting it up would be the danger so why not show a needle. This is just strange and It guess could be a sting to catch meth users.

From the facebook post.

***WARNING: *** If you have recently purchased meth in any area of Louisiana it may be contaminated with the Zika Virus. Please bring all of it to your local Police Department and they will test it for free.

You think it is the PD just joking around? The are several news report about it.

a reply to: LookingAtMars

This is the second police department I've seen do this in the last couple of years.

It's a joke.

a reply to: LookingAtMars

Oh they aren't joking, brother.

They just want that crap off the street, and it's irrelevant if its true or not if it gets it off the street.

Looks like they got me
Darn cops

a reply to: Maverick1

No doubt brother.

I heard it's infected with ebola!

a reply to: LookingAtMars

It's ok. I got nailed with a FTL particle article once. Felt pretty silly.

I was all serious about it and everything too lol.

Maybe the pic is a suggestion that a pipe would kill the virus, not a needle?
I don’t even know, it meth smokable? It must taste awful...

Are meth users really missing so many brain cells....that they’d call cops to test their meth.?

People should start calling with bags of baking soda to get tested.

Just waist the shi out of their time like they seem to want to do lol.

Sad, in this day it isnt even safe to smoke meth anymore.

You have to worry about zika.

a reply to: LookingAtMars

Sadly the ADDICTS at large will take the risk and do it anyway.

Also this is a great way for Law Enforcement to tell a White Lie and discourage drug users.


USE AT YOUR OWN RISK😝

Where did the cops even get the meth? Did someone really call in and say *i got meth and i think theirs something fishy about the taste*
Or did the cops buy the meth?

a reply to: sylVestere

They do seize meth in busts from time to time I am sure. How they knew it had Zika? Looks like that is a set-up and it does not have Zika.

a reply to: LookingAtMars


Weirdest PSA I have see.

a reply to: LookingAtMars

The Zika virus is actually part of the meth-making process.

But the better dealers add urine to the process to get rid of the virus.

If you think you may have unsafe meth, urinate in it for safety.





SCIENCE!
