Town Sees Cluster Of Brain Tumor Cases

[Sequoia]

CAMERON, Mo. -- More than a dozen brain tumors have been diagnosed in seven months ago in the town of Cameron, KMBC's Kelly Eckerman reported.

It did not take long for word to spread in the town of 6,500.

Steve Helms was diagnosed just weeks ago, and suddenly friends were telling him they had a brain tumor, too.

What is your greatest concern right now?" Eckerman asked Helms.

"Dying. That's my greatest concern, and how many other people are walking around and have it and don't even know it," Helms said.

1. Who needs EPA regulation?

Regulations are bad m'kay. :sarcasm:

2. Someone needs to research the connection in Detroit between the incinerator and asthma rates

I'm pretty convinced it's a factor, along with some genetic predisposition within the african american community.
