From the article:
“...It’s very, very powerful. 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine and 25 to 50 times more potent than heroin,” he said. “Depending on the grade, about 40 times more potent than heroin.”
The CDC estimates that fentanyl is 80 times as potent as morphine and hundreds of times more potent than heroin. Classified as a Schedule II drug by the federal government, its medical uses are typically pain management following surgery or for chronic pain.

He’s calling for the execution of Chinese pharmaceutical executives. He makes a very strong case.

A patch? So this drug can actually be administered involuntarily on another person in their sleep?

Police have been overdosing on fentanyl just for touching a container with it inside.

Thumbing through twitter I clicked on his live feed and heard it, heartbreaking, RIP. I have lost one in my social circles to “Pink” from China, I wonder if it is the same drug. Another in my outer circles lost a child and it may or may not be related to the after effects of addiction. China needs to step up to the plate, ditto that all the countries making this junk.

He had a patch so does that mean he had a prescription for it?

"...police overdose..."
I have read the very same thing.
One wonders how the drug dealers handle this poison?

Maybe. But those patches are sold on the black market too. The user chews on them, or a portion of them.
