CLARIFICATION ON THE TOXICITY ISSUE TO ADULTS

Dioxin exposure is not like arsenic. For adults, most who react will start to feel sick; it’s distinctly “flu like” as I’ve had this. Some will get rashes, which is about the slow death of their liver. The rash is an indication of systemic poisoning.

But due to our greater body weight, adults can handle a little more, for a while. What it does to adults is create a kind of time bomb; miscarriages; infertility; hormone disruption; cancers; three generations of genetic damage (I have all of this either firsthand or from the companies own documents).

Children can get extremely ill and die. Animals — pets and livestock — can be killed immediately, along with wildlife. The birds are all gone from the whole area. So the smaller one’s body, the more it acts like an acute poison rather than a long-term disruptor of every system. And we all already bear a body-burden of the stuff, measured in parts per trillion in blood adipose tissue.

Dioxin is a trace contaminant of other toxins, like Agent Orange and PCBs. So it rides along with them, and is also created in a burn situation. We are witnessing a worst case scenario. Thousands of tons (nine railroad cars of chlorinated chemicals) went up, and burned in proximity of other hydrocarbons (vegetables, wheat, motor oil, etc.) and so this turns the ordinary cargo into hazmat when they are burned together.

This is an extinction level kind of event. There are 125,000 farms in PA and OH. It will concentrate in the food and be shipped all over the world. The only potentially worse dioxin release in a single incident was the World Trade Center, and I don’t think it was bad, and much of that smoke blew out to see, adding to the background level in the oceans.

Thanks for reminding me - that is a very important question. the whole notion of shipping it around on a train is ridiculous.

Thank you so much! I am sharing this with people in East Palestine! And we are concerned about the dioxins now as well. We are under 65 miles away.

Eric! I thought you were resting your brain for a few minutes?

You're a treasure. Don't wear yourself out, but thank you so much.

An absolutely great package of information about the matter, Eric! You have continuously done the right thing by it, while the pretenders who are the "health freedom" community celebrities have largely been notable in their silence.

Thank-you for these.

(I was surprised to see that I recognized your name when a commenter linked your posts in another stack yesterday--I remembered seeing yr ads in Mtn Astrologer.)

My ex-father in law was a chemical engineer. He worked at Love Canal. He also worked on the Manhattan project, learned German so he could read their research. Died a few years ago, he was heavily invested in a company that reclaimed oil.

Does anyone know where we can get our water tested? Other than by a governmental agency???? 😳😳

do private testing -- ordinary homeowner type water quality screening and see what comes back. Send it to a lab as far from Ohio as you can.

I am not a journalist, but I'm a good writer. Once I get up to speed with all of this that you have so graciously laid out, I would like to get busy. Not sure how, but I have a lot of free time to help with this unfathomable process that lies before us.

I listened to you with the Health Ranger, Mike Adams today. I appreciate your efforts, so thank you. As a native of Binghamton, NY and a current resident of Oklahoma, I'm doing what little I can to bring awareness to this disaster "back east", in particular. Even relatives of mine in PA and NY just don't seem to understand the gravity of this situation. Being born in 1953, I thought the majority of this was behind us.

I live about 35-40 miles west of E. Palestine and my wife is pregnant. Is there anyway we can lessen the effects? RO on the water well? Activated charcoal shower head? I’ve head iodine and maybe baking soda? We decided to head out of town for a week shortly after they decided to do the control burn. We left before any rain fall. Please let me know. Thanks

Watching you on InfoWars right meow!

So glad you went on with Mike Adams. Already listened to your interview with him on Brighteon and the phone call you and Carol did with the citizens of Ohio. Thank you both so much, but damn it, Eric. You look exhausted. Make sure you're eating good food, taking extra Vit C & E and try to nap when you can...until you can sleep again someday, hopefully soon.

You've been working like a madman.

I'm wondering if the video is available on an alternative site since all I get is a big black box that says it’s unavailable. I'm borrowing a WiFi hotspot from my library -- a service paid for by the CARES act -- but the hotspots are censoring selected YouTube (I think mostly) content along with the ability to see and write comments! I'm trying to drill down to exactly who okayed this arrangement and have sent an inquiry to the ALA. The tech at the library says she has tried to fix the problem on her end but has been unable to do so. I'm sure library patrons all over the country who are borrowing the hotspots are affected. The choices of what "they" are censoring are interesting and I am working on a write up about it. Thank you.
