Attn: Diabetics. RAW SEWAGE Hepatitis, staph, foot amputation

* Hepatitis - An inflammation of the liver caused by infection or toxic agents and characterized by jaundice, fever, liver enlargement, and abdominal pain. Sewage backup is reported to be related to Hepatitis.

Inhalation of contaminated organisms is a simple way for micro organisms to penetrate the human body. It happens when we breathe aerosolized particles or contaminated dust.


A better understanding of the facts about sewer backup, potential health risks when exposed to sewage backup and its products and diseases transmission is the key to keep you and your family safe.

MRSA: Where Do We Go From Here?
- By David G. Armstrong, DPM, MSc, PhD

“When it comes to diabetic foot infections, the presence of MRSA may lead to poorer outcomes, an increased risk of amputations, higher treatment costs and increased mortality.”

After sewage back spills, my neighbor contracted hepatitis. His foot became so infected it was amputated; he died age 50.

Look what happened to my feet as a result of the raw sewage.







Not to mention ongoing illnesses, respiratory - this is less than ONE YEAR!

My handicapped uncle's hospitalizations and death coincided with the discharging of raw sewage.

Here Fresno, CA's Tower District is the proof that the risk analyst was lying about the cause behind sewage back spills. They were 100% deliberate and intentional - behind secret replacement of the water system. Within 2 homes there was ongoing illness, respiratory, cellulitis, pseudomonas, repeated hospitalization, amputation, death and more.

Why does a sewer backup present a serious health threat? A sewer backup will always be the source of health hazards mainly because of the organic waste and wastewater that it contains. Such filthy place can be an easy nesting ground for bacteria, viruses and harmful micro organism. It is hazardous because of the many ways it carries diseases which is sometimes difficult to detect.

For you to truly understand the hazards sewer backup can bring to you and your family, one should learn what sewage first. Sewer backup is also known as septic tank waste or raw sewage.

Septic tank waste typically contains everything from wastewater to solid waste matter, human feces, industrial discharge and organic waste produced by households and industrial sources. It is unloaded by drains and sewage lines.

Harmful micro organisms such as coliform, fecal colifrom, Escherichia coliform and Enterococcus root from its main source excrement.

Being exposed to sewage or to its fecal contents may cause a number if diseases:

* Gastroenteritis - An inflammation of the stomach and intestine causing vomiting, diarrhea and cramps if irritation is too much. It is often accompanied with fever if gastroenteritis is a result of an infectious agent.

* Hepatitis - An inflammation of the liver caused by infection or toxic agents and characterized by jaundice, fever, liver enlargement, and abdominal pain. Sewage backup is reported to be related to Hepatitis.

*Occupational asthma - A respiratory disorder characterized by labored breathing, chest constriction and wheezing.

*Weil's disease - A feverish condition marked by gastroenteritis, severe headache, pains in the back and calf prostration, and sometimes developing of mild jaundice.

*Allergic Alveolitis - An inflammation of the inner part of the lung (alveolitis). Sewage backup may be associated with this disease; nevertheless it is rarely reported with relation. It starts with fever, breathlessness, dry cough, muscular aches and malaise.

In addition, exposure to sewer backup may cause fatal damage to liver, kidney and blood disorder. Infection of skin or eyes is a sign of sewer backup related contamination.

It is an important thing to know how disease can be transmitted. Knowing the transmission pattern of sewage backup related diseases provides preventive ways for micro organisms to get in a human body.

The most common way of transmission is mouth-to-mouth contact and it happens during eating and smoking
. Hand-to-mouth contact can also transmit disease. It occurs while wiping the face with something contaminated such as hand or gloves.
Another possible transmission is skin contact, when skin comes in contact with contaminated matter through cuts, scratches or deep wounds. Certain parasites can enter the body by means of entering through the surface of the eyes nose and mouth.

Inhalation of contaminated organisms is a simple way for micro organisms to penetrate the human body. It happens when we breathe aerosolized particles or contaminated dust.

A better understanding of the facts about sewer backup, potential health risks when exposed to sewage backup and its products and diseases transmission is the key to keep you and your family safe.

CA Central Valley's Pollution / Unknown Pesticides

Marla




Yet ANOTHER article regarding Fresno's problem with DBCP, a pesticide that was banned in 1977. More money being poured into so-called "research."
CLICK: Valley cities divert cleanup funds 6/20/09



Fresno is known as the "asthma capital of the valley." Where 1 in 6 school children now carry inhalers. Where raw sewage is being discharged behind secret replacement of the city water system without permits, inspections, safety precautions. Where the pesticide DBCP continues to escalate. Where money continues being poured into so-called "investigations" as to what could be causing these problems.

First of all, what are the unknown pesticides being used for the eradication of sewer roaches, sewer rats and mosquito infestations? DBCP was banned in 1977. It has a short life span yet continues to escalate in Fresno. I can't help but suspect that this is what I saw in WGS's storage facilities ~ gallons upon gallons of chemicals. At the time I did not question him, because I was totally unaware of his "secret sideline." For now, some information regarding DBCP in Fresno, CA.

The last one refers to the risk analyst who lied about the cause of sewage back spills prior to the horrors described on my MySpace page. CLICK: Marla I am prohibited from discussing ANY of this with ANYONE at the City of Fresno other than the senior risk analyst who committed perjury to call me a "liar" about what I reported. (3 yrs) He has since refused to even acknowledge me as the City is currently issuing death threats and sexual harassment against me for my ongoing attempts to seek help.





Violation of human and civil rights? No help with that either.

Childhood asthma - cockroach allergens

CLICK: Marla


As a matter of interest, cockroaches are a big problem that accompany the City of Fresno, CA's secret replacement of sewer and water lines. Followed by unknown chemicals / pesticides.

Childhood asthma may be triggered by cockroach allergens

Cockroach allergens can increase asthma attacks in children much more than// allergens from dust mites or pets.

The research, funded by National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, US, said that incidence of allergens from cockroaches in homes may however be specific to certain areas of the cities.

The researchers had exposed children suffering from asthma to cockroach allergens and found out that there seems to be a significant increase in the frequency of number of days they suffered from coughs, wheezing spells with tightening of chests, nights of interrupted sleep, missed school days and disrupted play activities.

Cockroach allergens can come from several sources such as sewage, saliva, and exposed food particles or dead animals. Keeping the house clean, mopping the floors regularly, cleaning out garbage on a daily basis can keep the cockroach allergens under control at home. Other measures to control allergens from the roaches can be eating only in the dining or kitchen areas, keeping all the food items covered in airtight containers, repairing leaking faucets etc.

The research report is published in the current edition of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.

Asthma and Raw Sewage in Fresno, CA

Fresno is known as the "Asthma Capital of California." It seems the problem continues to worsen every year.

Can you imagine the horrendous pollution that would by caused by years of secretly discharging toxic, infectious, disease-carrying raw sewage from one end of town to the other. Contaminating our air, soil, while spreading deadly bacteria and pathogens from MRSA.

I cordially invite (urge) you to take a look at what has been uncovered: Click: Marla

In the meantime, below are some links to other sites with information regarding our air, asthma, and more.

Per
http://www.1000friendsoffresno.org/:
One child in six has asthma--more than 3 times the national average. Air quality flags go up each morning at schools telling kids how safe it is to breathe. Efforts to clean up the air are underway, but they'll take years--not soon enough to let this generation breathe easy.



In fact, simply breathing in this area, one of the country's richest agricultural regions, is as bad as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day and for Hispanics, who live in the midst of some of the worst pollution, those cigarettes have no filters.
