Oil Spill Health Issues, KLFY, January 27, 2011: http://www.klfy.com/Global/story.asp?S=13917916 [A] new report just out has revealed some very disturbing findings. ... A blood study that was conducted on four males ages 3 to 43 and one female age 38 in December of last year. Subra says the results of those tests have revealed elevated levels of six toxic and potentially life threatening chemicals associated with crude oil, most notably Ethylbenzene which has been linked to kidney damage and cancer. ... UL Lafayette Professor Paul Klerks is an expert in the environmental toxicology and he says the high levels of ethyl benzene found in human patients is alarming but he doesn't believe its reason to panic just yet. "This is potentially cause for concern, but it's a very small sample size of five so it's really hard to tell with just a small sample size what it means as whole." ... [Their] problems included everything from trouble breathing, and bleeding from the ears, to swelling of the limbs and blood in the stool. Some of the more unusual cases include a commercial diver who is plagued by mysterious rash and the three year son of a fisherman who is suffering from kidney stones.

The President said he will "hold BP's feet to the fire" ... Well, were that to be true, if my calculations are correct, no one at the high corporate level of BP should be able to walk by now.

Yeh I wouldnt be eating any seafood harvested in the Gulf or anywhere along the eastern seaboard, at this point... Altho the effects of that spill may turn out to be GLOBAL.

Our govt has truly hit a NEW LOW, telling people "everything is ok" when that is so far far from the truth. Amounts to just one more ACT OF TREASON against their own people!

[restoresoundmoney]

What about the Corexit (sp?) used by BP to "clean up" the spill? Have we seen these kinds of symptoms from the innumerable people who work on rigs? Talk about exposure! I have a feeling this has more to do with the crap that was used on the spill than the spill itself.

AND how about the statement made by Credo Mutwa that "ill winds" will circle the Earth 9 times and that oceans will become black?

@dixielatino You mean the Environmental Destruction Agency? (I think it's rather obvious whose side they are on!)
