Dozens of babies diagnosed with new condition linked to fentanyl that causes deformed heads, conjoined toes and clubbed fingers
Daily Mail UK ^ | August 2, 2024 | Cassidy Morrison

Dozens more babies in the US have been born with a frightening new condition linked to fentanyl abuse during pregnancy.

Known as fetal fentanyl syndrome, the disorder causes multiple physical and brain defects, including conjoined fingers and toes and deformed heads.

Dr Miguel Del Campo, at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego, has seen 20 babies with the syndrome and fears the issue is far more widespread and going undetected.

The condition was only identified last fall and there is no national or state-level data to track how prevalent it is.

Dr Del Campo was inspired by that research, which was published by doctors from Vanderbilt University, the University of Nebraska Medical Center and Nemours Children’s Hospital in Delaware.

He said: ‘After reading the paper and thinking about things, I have recognized the potential for exposure to fentanyl.’

It is thought that fentanyl damages the baby’s ability to make cholesterol in the womb, which is crucial for their brains and bodies to develop properly.

nfants with the syndrome also often have a cleft palate, ‘rocker bottom feet’ – named for the way bent feet resemble the legs of a rocking chair – upturned noses, drooping eyelids, undersized lower jaws, and webbed toes.

It's my thoughts that a drug addicted pregnant woman should be locked up until the baby comes if she won't quit using

It may be drug addicted mothers, but fentanyl has been around for a long time and these babies have a ‘syndrome’ that is new. What about mothers who were vaccinated?

true it’s been around but when it it become popular to abuse? I only started hearing about it last few years.

I remember in the 80’s we had crack babies, I know people still do crack but I don’t hear about it as much. Seems they have switched to heroin.

It never ends, does it?

Makes one NOSTALGIC for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome babies - many of which I rocked to sleep at our local hospital back in the day. :(

But, you know, K@mala says the border is secure, so what do WE know? This has GOT to be disinformation!

*SPIT*

Businesses were offering free food, money, tickets, prizes etc. and there were outreach efforts to comb homeless encampments and people lying on the street to get vaccinated.

It was my pleasure; those babies were so precious. I seriously felt ‘The Hand of God’ on me as I did it. Not for my own gain of course, but to His Glory! :)

I now live in a part of America that hasn’t been totally decimated by drugs and crime, and our Farm Kids have been raised to be DECENT people with goals and dreams, so there’s little opportunity these days for that same sort of thing.

But, Thank Goodness for THAT small favor in my little corner of the world. :)

 Early in his first term in office, President Trump tried to alert the public to the catastrophic levels of fentanyl overdoses that were killing Americans. He said it was 'almost like a war' by which I believe he was telling us that China and other enemies was picking off Americans with fentanyl - war without bullets/guns but still taking down Americans.

I'd always wondered why I'd hear generic street drugs had been 'laced' with Fentanyl and I came to understand that it was part of our enemies war on the US, but made to avoid open warfare. People thought they were buying their usual drugs but would overdose because it was laced with fentanyl. People were dropping around a city, overdosing on the sidewalk, too fast for ambulances to keep up.

I think enemies like China would not avoid pairing their drug war on the US with the Plandemic China and other enemies (Mexican Drug Cartels?), including US Traitors, were planning. I do recall reports of a few drug busts on the waterfront border with Cananda in which the doses seized were enough to kill millions of Americans. It's truly war.

Apparently, time stopped at the end of 2022 - looks like the Biden regime doesn't want people to note that Fentanyl overdoses were sky rocketing unchecked with him in office (needle programs etc.) so many articles only have data up through 2022. But here's congress talking about the Fentanyl crisis.

 
When did fentanyl become a big problem?
 
Fentanyl-related overdose deaths started rising in 2012. By 2016, they eclipsed deaths from heroin and diverted prescription pain pills.

Mis Andry Harris and Pedo Joe brought all the fentanyl in with their freeloading lawn boyz. These babies are their fault. Of course, those two maggots don’t care about babies anyway.

Pain clinics over the last 35+ years created many of these monsters. Now insurance won’t reimburse what was once common, the pain clinics can’t survive without what insurance once covered, the pain clinics are folding, and the addicts are hitting the streets. Don’t ask me how I know.

Mad scientists are experimenting with DNA changes, using mRNA to change humanity.

Sounds crazy doesn’t it? Except they did it, they brag about scientists creating more deadly diseases, then brag about inventing the cure.

I would say, “Something wicked this way comes”, but it has always been here. Just hidden in the sewers of mankinds mind. We used to have a “Restrainer”, I think “His” hand has been lifted. It is now “Anything goes”.

What sober mind can deny that?

People are ingesting far too many poisons and drugs into their bodies. Some they willingly do but others, in our food and environment, we’re clueless about.

Those poor little babies didn’t ask for this. Their parents, using the word extremely loosely, knowingly did this to them and should be locked up for decades. This is the same as a premeditated violent attack that permanently injured them. Their dealers should get life. Too many slaps on the wrist.

I wanted so badly to be on my student’s dealer’s jury. RIP, Caleb. Your smile lit up the room and you spread joy everywhere you went.
