Its weird how in this case they went ahead and had a coroner do a biopsy on him when they hardly ever do it for other presumed OD deaths. Going as far as saying it was Opiate & Methamphetamine maybe they are finally trying to figure out why so many OD? Drug deaths seem to be increasing in Cambodia and it seems to be following the same trend thats happening in North America and presumably other places. Many places experiencing record numbers of OD deaths - most of which are related to Fentenyl or other drugs laced with Fentenyl. I don't think I buy the notion that heroin or speed or whatever is always just more pure in Cambodia. Half the coffee people drink is laced chemically laced flavourings and soy ffs for sellers to save a few cents.gavinmac wrote:Koon Khmer is reporting his death. He was 57, of course.

These deaths are so commonplace now they hardly warrant a mention.
I'll second that.scobienz wrote:These deaths are so commonplace now they hardly warrant a mention.

I'm not going to bother with the index next year. Too much hassle. At any time the answer to how many deaths will be the same: lots, mostly yanks and Brits and far too many in shitsville.

Part of a regional (or worldwide) trend ?, with an increase in heroin deaths in Australia....
for example, Melbourne OD's spiked 20% last year. The highest number for 15 years, since the last heroin glut.
Average age of those overdosing has increased......
"" At the end of the heroin glut in the 90s, victims were aged in their late 20s, but now they are a decade older.
"In fact in 2015 the average age was around 41," Dr Dwyer said. "So what it suggests is that there might actually be a population of people who have been drug-dependent, opiate-dependent for some years.
"[They] survived the first spike, the heroin overdose deaths of the 90s, and they've continued using opiates and heroin, and now for whatever reasons they're the ones who are starting to die." "
