The ever elusive "krokodil"
Jacob Sullum (@jacobsullum) has written two fantastic articles about the krokodil hysteria. The articles can be found here at Forbes.com and Reason.com. In summary, it has been several months since the first "krokodil cases" were reported by US doctors and media, and there still has been neither a nonbiological specimen test positive for desomorphine or derivative nor a biological specimen (blood or urine) test positive for desomorphine or derivative. And the beat goes on... Cheers, ForensicToxGuy
