In Manhattan there is the Irving Selikoff Occupational Environmental Clinic at Mt Sinai Hospital. Dr. Selikoff is the one who discovered the mechanism of disease from asbestos. His work caused the construction of the trade towers to cleanup as they were getting asbestos all over the placeduring construction.

Anyway - Dr. Selikoff celebrated his discovery as a breakthrough in the cause of many illnesses - interference by environmental factors causing disease. He has since died and the clinic named after him.

Sad to say that when EPA was issuing their bogus reports, doctors from the Selikoff Clinic were backing up the EPA. Believe me - the doctors of occ-med, except for a few, are crooked too. The asbestos lobbyists were out faster than the doctors blaming the collapse of the towers on lack of asbestos. Dr. Selikloff wqould have been horrified.

The injured from New York will be shuffled through the system into the mental health area. They will be labeled malingerers and people attempting to rip off the system - yes firefighters and police too. They will be told that their respiratory illnesses should have cleared by now. They will not receive adequate medical care, their lives will have been ruined they will show up as "mentally ill" statistics.

This is how corporate America controls liability - with the help of the medical community.
