GMTV done a good interview with a rescue worker this morning too.
ITV, TODAY, 06:23
WTC CANCER - many rescue workers have come down with a strange cancer after 911. 70 percent of those involved have serious health issues. The issue has been kept secret over in Britain.
STUDIO INTERVIEW: JOHN MCNAMARA, WTC RESCUE WORKER - five years ago I was in shape, now I weigh 30 pounds less and have to get chemotherapy. I have to take all this medication and get chemotherapy. I got a cough after 911. Five years later I was diagnosed with colon cancer which affected my stomach and liver. I felt okay today, I'm getting more chemotherapy so will feel lousy tomorrow. The asbestosis and cancerous tumours will start showing up in the next ten years. There was 500 tons of asbestos in those buildings, they said there wasn't much but they were lying. There was also PCB oils and other horrible things like arsenic and formadehyde. The average fireman has lost 10 to 12 years of their lung live from breathing in the cancerous stuff that was down there. The government need to fund more studies and test people but they are not doing it. They need to help us, we were here for them when they needed us, now it's there turn to help us.
I was off duty on 911 but they done a total recall, all firemen had to return to work. There was snow and ash, it was a blizzard of dust. I think it's the cause of my health problems. Our new mayor says it's not related to the WTC but more studies are being done, 70 percent have lung problems, that's a lot of people. Funding needs to come from Bush, they spent 300bn dollars on Iraq. We are waiting for help still five years later.
When the towers came down they took big breaths of dust, they coughed up dust balls, some of those first on the scene are really sick with lung problems now. They are doing screenings but not for cancer. The RED CROSS and SALVATION ARMY were down there. My wife is pregnant and I have cancer, I don't know if I will make it. We did our job, now it's time for them to help us out. This was an attack on the country, NY is open for business.
