Horrific: 31 foreigners fall ill from cannabis gummies in Budapest
Change language:
Over two dozen people had to be transported to a toxicology clinic in Budapest after they consumed cannabis gummies purchased at a local hemp store. The foreigners experienced near coma-like symptoms, with many of them needing days to recover. The police are investigating the event.
According to Blikk, a total of 31 non-nationals had to be hospitalised in Budapest in the past two weeks after consuming highly potent cannabis gummies. The foreigners visiting Budapest had bought the cannabionide-containing gummy candies in a CBD shop on Váci Street – a bag that contains five pieces of sweets and sells for HUF 15,000 (EUR 38.12). The product, as stated on the packaging, contains a substance called THCJD, which is a psychoactive cannabinoid similar to the more well-known THC.
Cannabis gummies induced nightmare: people in near coma from consuming THCJD
As THCJD is a relatively new strain of cannabinoid on the CBD market, scientific literature on its effects is virtually non-existent as of yet. Many say, however, that it has such a high potency that it mimics a strong psychedelic effect. Some claim that it is almost twenty times more intoxicating than THC. As there are a limited number of studies on the substance, verifying these claims is difficult, but nonetheless, the reported extreme potency of the substance puts consumers at an increased risk of intoxication and impairment.
This is probably what happened to the foreigners that had to be taken to the toxicology unit: according to Blikk, several of them were practically unconscious after consuming the cannabis gummies. A Jordanian couple, for example, was found unconscious in their Airbnb, lying on the floor in their own excrement, after missing for several days. They were not the only ones in such a predicament: others had been in a near coma-like state for days in the clinic.
“Totally out cold. They can neither speak nor move. It’s as if they were in a coma, lying there for days,”
a relative of one of the patients admitted told the newspaper. According to their information, the first patients exhibiting these symptoms arrived at the ward on Friday 21 June. Several of them were found to have cannabis gummies, and one person even had the bill for the candy with them. This is what led to the hemp shop on Váci Street.
None of this is true,are you now like the rest of the Wests MSM,also this article was printed before years ago pushing the cannabis lies,P.S A person has never died from cannabis and THC in the human body works together so you can only get to certain high and no more unlike opiods.Go do your homework and stop printing reefer madness propaganda.
I took two of these gummies and even have some video of me being in a veggie state, i was knocked out for 4 days, i couldn’t talk during the high and after waking up i barely could connect 4 phrases without pausing and having issues i swear this was either rat poison or not weed.
This is what happens when you make something illegal. If they all just smoked a joint none of this would have happened. No one ever died from THC, Not a single person.
As a foreigner when i was there working on a ship, we decided to buy some gummies since we couldnt be bothered asking people around for weed ( most of them said no ) and didnt want to rack in any trouble and bad weed, these gummies knocked me out for 4 days and disabled my speech literally nearly a full month
