This should be a heads-up to check the scores of
industrial sites similarly converted. To whatever degree
possible, potential exposure to these chemicals
should be added to the health records of former employees
who worked at such sites locally, and nationally to
employees anywhere who worked in the same or
similar industries.
Many a health diagnosis could be helped by
supplying such information.
Investigations should be done with the knowledge that
in some cases there is not a guilty party.
This is appalling! There must be accountability for exposing these folks to poisons.
