42 Disease Clusters Discovered in 13 States!
8 States Belong to Diabetes Belt!

March 29, 2011 09:20 AM EDT


<span style='font-size: 11pt'>Forty-two disease clusters have been discovered in 13 states across the U.S. More shocking than this discovery is the fact that 8 out of those 13 states belong to the newly discovered "Diabetes Belt" of America, which is comprised of 15 states. Is this a mere coincidence or an indication of something far more dire?</span>
<span style='font-size: 11pt'>
The 13 states affected by the disease clusters are
Arkansas,
California,
Delaware,
Florida,
Louisiana,
Michigan,
Missouri,
Montana,
North Carolina,
Ohio,
Pennsylvania,
Texas,
Tennessee.

The 15 states in America's "Diabetes Belt" are:
Alabama,
Arkansas,
Florida,
Georgia,
Kentucky,
Louisiana,
Mississippi,
North Carolina,
Ohio,
Pennsylvania,
South Carolina,
Tennessee,
Texas,
Virginia,
West Virginia.

The eight overlapping states are:
Arkansas,
Florida,
Louisiana,
North Carolina,
Ohio,
Pennsylvania,
Texas,
Tennessee.

According to the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), the 42 disease clusters involve diseases such as "numerous types of cancer, birth defects and other chronic illnesses." The study researched disease clusters which formed as far back as 1976.

Unfortunately, even though the NRDC was able to discover these disease clusters, they have been unable to identify a cause for all but one of the clusters. The NRDC choose to start looking for clusters in 1976 because of the Toxic Substance Control Act which was passed by Congress as a way to regulate the toxic chemical products used by businesses and consumers.

Hopefully, the NRDC will be able to locate the cause of these disease clusters. Once they know, they will be able to come up with a plan to educate the public. Who knows what deadly things are being used daily that could potentially be the cause of one's death. It's a frightening thought.</span></div></div>

What was the reason for your lame attemtp to somehow connect the disease clusters to diabetes? If you bothered to read your own link, or do a little research, you would have seen that the most likely cause is chemical leaks or spills.

We can thank George Bush, and the Grand Oil Party, for our filthy air and water....they are the protectors of the cancer corporations. Bush altered his own father's clean air and water act, for Halliburton, etc,.....Now, the Repigs are even trying to do away with the EPA, entirely. Gee, wonder who that little effort is for, their fairy God Mothers? Koch Brothers, maybe?

I could tell you what you are full of, but I would have to be very careful, so as to not end up violating the terms of use and getting banned.

Use your imagination!

No comment then?



Q

[pooltchr]

She never answered my question. How did she come to the conclusion that the clusters are somehow tied in to diebetes, when just slightly over half of the states involved fall into her "diabetes belt"?

It's just more of her lame BS!

Clusters usually indicate a defined area in localized region. Love canal for instance.

[LWW]

Has anyone investigated to see what clusters are involved with Maryland swamp water?

[Sev]

Thats good question. I believe we have evidence of brain fever.
