Zombie Apocalypse in UK Town as US Flesh-Eating Drug Turns People Into Walking Dead

Drug outreach workers in Tower Hamlets, London, say they've seen a disturbing rise in users with flesh-eating abscesses sparking belief there is a new opioid on the rise disguised as heroin


BBC 18 AUG 2023







UK town has been likened to a "zombie apocalypse" due to a highly addictive new drug, from US, resulting in horrific skin sores.



People struggling with drug addictions are being preyed upon by dealers selling what outreach workers believe is a new wave of synthetic opioids. One area of Tower Hamlets, East London, has seen an influx of men and women lying in the floor covered in flesh wounds.

Community organisation Coffee Afrik, which works to support drug users, believes the people have been using the synthetic alternatives to heroin. While the claims are currently unproved, the organisation said it was seeing an insidious outbreak of users with the sores while lying catatonic and in agony just yards from Tower Hamlets Council's headquarters.

The BBC's Local Democracy Service reports "disturbing scenes" in the borough, with one man seen lying in pain on the floor with both legs covered in blood and pus-oozing sores wrapped in bandages. The man had passed out from the pain before outreach worker Abdi Hassan intervened calling 999.
