Perils of the new pesticides.

[Guest guest]

http://www.publicintegrity.org/investigations/pesticides/pages/introduction/Extract:Two-and-a-half-year-old Amber Nickol McKeown had head lice. Her mother, , put the child in a warm bath and massaged Osco Lice Treatment Shampoo into her scalp. Problem solved. But when lifted Amber from the tub, she noticed her daughter’s chest had turned red. She called her husband, James, upstairs, and the couple tried bathing Amber in cool water. The little girl’s condition deteriorated quickly. She labored to breathe. Her eyes rolled back in her head, and her skin peeled off in clumps, according to a lawsuit filed by the family. Amber was rushed from her home in Lester, Pennsylvania, to Fitzgerald Mercy Hospital, where the staff found burns over 60 percent of her body. She was in respiratory distress, and her heart and lungs couldn’t supply her body with oxygen. On November 4, 2000, within 72 hours of her bath, Amber was dead. After performing an autopsy, the Delaware County (Pennsylvania) medical examiner concluded that the child’s death had been triggered by exposure to a type of pesticide called a pyrethrin and its accompanying impurities, according to the family’s lawsuit. Pyrethrins, extracted from the chrysanthemum plant, and their synthetic relatives, pyrethroids, have exploded in popularity over the last decade. They are now used in thousands of consumer products from Hartz Dog Flea & Tick Killer to Raid Ant and Roach Killer. These chemicals are found in bug-repellant clothing, flea collars, automatic misting devices, lawn-care products, and carpet sprays. Manufacturers developed them as safer alternatives to a class of compounds, derived from Nazi nerve gases, called organophosphates, found in products such as Dursban. The chemicals were widely used in American homes as recently as the late 1990s but are no longer approved by the Environmental Protection Agency for indoor use. "It is now 30 years since I have been confining myself to the treatment ofchronic diseases. During those 30 years I have run against so many histories of littlechildren who had never seen a sick day until they were vaccinated and who, in the severalyears that have followed, have never seen a well day since. I couldn't put my finger onthe disease they have. They just weren't strong. Their resistance was gone. They wereperfectly well before they were vaccinated. They have never been well since.
