Oil Workers Fall Ill


The BP oil spill happened about a year ago in the Gulf Coast, and while apparently alot of progress has been made in the clean up- now another problem is coming to the surface. Workers who have helped with the clean up are getting sick. Some of these people have been sick for months, suffering from vomiting, sore throats, ear infections, memory loss and rapid heartbeat. While they were told the chemicals used to clean up the oil was no more harmful that dish soap- the sick workers are thinking something else.
