RE: Agricultural Pesticides Do Appear To Cause Birth Defects, But Only When Exposed To Extreme Amounts

in #science7 years ago

I think it depends on the persons immune system, some people can just take external poisons like pesticides in small quantities better than others. I know people who worked for years with Nemagon used in banana plantations up to the 80's and sure enough many of these guys suffered skin lesions which are practically incurable, others became sterile, others impotent and others got absolutely no incidence from it, all of them having had the same exposure.

Sort:  

Upvoted - I know it hard but what were the approx proportions of this as in comparing numbers of effected to non effected?

No, that would be nearly impossible, many of these men are already dead, no way of knowing if the exposure killed them or they had natural deaths, others emigrated etc.

Interesting, these guys would have had a massive exposure. Many times higher then anyone in this study. Thank you for sharing.
