Any studies on the survivors?
Hillary was blaming Bush for this about a year ago.
bad and sad thing, for sure.
this illustrates the reason that these NY employee/rescue workers have health insurance, workmans comp, etc.
so federal taxpayers shouldn't have to wprry about another huge bill, right? /s
So they can now sue OBL - since he has the money. Let a private sector lawyer find him and serve the papers.
Sinusitis? Forgive me if I can't see lumping that in with cancer.
Another reason dem's strategy for more first responders isn't the way to win this war.
Advice to all, in your first aid kit in your car / home, include a set of air filters and use them anytime there is a lot of dust in the air.
Nearly seven out of ten had some type of lung or sinus problems during or after the rescue.
From reading the article it sounds like many of them were simply some sinus irritation or coughing due to all the dust that was in the air right after the towers went down.
The article doesn't give any information on how many had problems that persisted after the rescue operation ended and the workers were no longer being exposed to the irritants from the site. Therefore I have a hard time judging how widespread this problem is.
For that reason I consider the article itself sensationalized garbage.
It also seems strange that workers are suing NYC and it's contractors. NYC did not create the problem, nor could the be reasonably expected to be able to respond to such an unprecedented event in such a way as to protect everyone from whatever might end up in the air from the collapse of the towers.
I will however join you in praying for all those who are ill as well as their families.
