Nitazenes: the dangerous drugs coming from Chinese factories | 60 Minutes Australia

The death comes amid an alarming spike in drug overdoses across Australia, and while it's not yet clear if the cases are linked, authorities are on high alert. The deaths come just weeks after the state government banned potentially life-saving pill-testing services, with health advocates now deeply concerned for the upcoming festival and Schoolies season. Our investigation from 2024 revealed how these deadly drugs are produced in Chinese factories and sold brazenly online, with dealers offering to ship kilograms of the substance to Australia via express post.
