Government's 9/11 Lies Continue To Affect People's Health
Latest study reveals young rescue workers have developed
immune system cancer

The federal government's lies over the safety of toxic air at
ground zero in the wake of the 9/11 attacks still continue to
take their toll on the health of workers and residents caught
up in the aftermath.
A
report from the AP reveals that researchers have
discovered that a number of young law enforcement officers who
participated in the rescue and cleanup operation have developed
an immune system cancer.
From a sample of 28,252 emergency responders,
eight people under the age of 45 were found to be suffering
from multiple myeloma. That figure raises an alarm due to the
fact that normally only one case of the disease would be expected
in that age group.
The study, conducted by health experts of the
World Trade Center Medical Monitoring and Treatment Program
at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, was published in this
month's Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.
The coordinating doctors have warned that people
who worked at ground zero in lower Manhattan should continue
to have their health monitored.
Mount Sinai has consistently been at the forefront
of research into the health effects of the 2001 attacks. A
2007 study by the Medical Center revealed that
out of 70,000 participants, 85 percent are suffering some kind
of respiratory problem.
Officials at New York City's health department
responded by declaring that this study, along with every other
study conducted since 2001 does not definitively indicate any
link between cancer and dust from the collapse of the twin towers,
despite the fact that hundreds
are known to have developed cancer after working
on rescue and recovery efforts.

The news comes on
the back of another study, released last week by
the city's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, revealing
that in 2006-2007, 13.5% of people exposed to the dust developed
asthma compared with 8.4% who had no dust cloud exposure.
The study, conducted by the health department
and the federal Centers for Disease Control and published in
the Journal of the American Medical Association, also
found elevated levels of post-traumatic stress disorder among
over 46,000 people who were surveyed in 2006-2007. This represents
an increase of 5% on 2003/04 levels.
We have previously extensively
reported on the fact that the EPA knowingly gave
misleading information to residents and workers regarding the
air quality in the aftermath of the attacks and how a cover
up, which leads to officials at the very top, has ensued.
The heroes of 9/11 have been shunned by a government that still
refuses cover the costs of healthcare for the vast majority
of the stricken because to do so would be an admission of culpability.
