@WeAreTheLoopUK @MotionBristol @FMeasham @Drug_Science @anyoneschild @TransformDrugs @ASPolice @EMCDDA @DIMSinfo @EC_es @KnowYourStuffNZ 5F-ADB (also known as 5F-MDMB-Pinaca) was found in 16 (out of 21) deaths found at inquest to be caused by synthetic cannabinoids in Birmingham between summer 2016 and summer 2018. This stuff is not safe, and can cause sudden death.
