West Virginia Tests Prove Water Is Contaminated

Don’t drink the water; Drink the water, Don’t drink the water

Testing Friday revealed higher levels of the leaked chemical “Crude MCHM” than had been determined safe for thousands of West Virgnians.

The West Virginia water company has instructed 287,702 people in Putnam County ”to avoid drinking and to limit contact with the water,” CBS reported.

“I took a shower after they told me it was a green light,” one resident told CBS. “That’s what made me mad.”

Three hundred thousand southern West Virginia residents in nine counties were placed under a water ban ten days ago on Jan. 9th after a mystery chemical used to clean coal leaked into the water supply.

Residents could not shower or cook with their tap water and had to drink bottled water.

Not until Wednesday, Jan. 15 did the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta warn pregnant women to avoid drinking the water.

“We generally advise that if chemical exposures can be avoided during pregnancy that women should try to do that, particularly when we know little about the chemical as we do in this case,” Dr. Vikas Kapil said.

“I took a shower after they told me it was a green light,” one resident told CNN. “That’s what made me mad.”

Three hundred thousand residents had been under water restrictions since Jan Friday the 10th, after a Nalco chemical with a secret ingredient that Freedom Industries used to clean coal, leaked into the water supply.

Under government orders, residents couldn’t shower or cook with it and had to drink bottled water.

Hospital ER units had seen hundreds of patients with poisoning symptoms.

As the water ban lifted one by one in the nine impacted areas, more people, desperate for showers and washing clothes and disahes, experienced an array of injuries and illnesses typical of chemical exposure.

While Nalco, famous for its dispersant Corexit that made Gulf oil 52 times more lethal, owns the patent to the secret contaminant injuring West Virgnians, Eastman manufacturers the brew.

Results of Eastman’s toxicity studies are included in Eastman’s Safety Data Sheet for Crude MCHM, publicly available.

Those studies, however, are totally inadequate,’ retired neuroscientist Dr. Paul Brown said Sunday.

Victims: please set up volunteer detox clinics and groups to coordinate aid distribution. Don’t count on government or Red Cross. Make your presence known widely on radio, TV, newspapers, and sites like this so concerned citizens can donate needed supplies, money, transportation, and other assistance
Concerned citizens: Prepare to help. Travel to the affected area to help, but take plenty of bottled water, wear a respirator with filters rated for volatile organics, and take detox supplies.
