Today we get the first measurements of air borne chemicals.
These numbers are shocking beyond what I would even have predicted
The concentration threshold for people to experience physical symptoms from hydrogen sulfide is about 5 to 10 parts per billion. But as recently as last Thursday, the EPA measured levels at 1,000 ppb
What is that a factor of, going from 10 (should be) to 1,000 (reality)?
Article at SOUTHERN STUDIES.
They were getting these data weeks ago and only now we see them. This is ethically questionable, not letting the public know how bad this is, when they've been sitting on the data for 3 weeks.
I remember when Dan Rather announced on the evening news that "Hot dogs cause cancer." How long will we wait for perky Katy Curic to announce that the Gulf causes cancer. By delaying the announcement they are subjecting more people to harm, innocent people who are being hoodwinked by Blather Petroleum.
The highest levels of airborne hydrogen sulfide measured so far were on May 3, at 1,192 ppb.
I'll bet that they don't even have the capability to measure the really, really bad toxic chemicals that I know are forming in the cloud.
Some pregnant gal with a bun in the oven, breathing these kinds of levels over the past few weeks is taking in toxic levels of ALL the nastiest, cancer causing chemicals known on the planet and feeding it into a newly developing fetus that does not have a chance of a healthy life. I'd say that nine months from now, the medical hospitals are going to be seeing new borns with deformities and abnormalities that are unimaginable.
Hydrogen sulfide is nowhere near as scary as the killer gases floating in the same air. They just didn't measure for the nasty stuff.
This will be the beginning of a cascade of reports that will tear back the curtain of what is really being hidden by the Wizard of Ooze.
