July 2, 2008 -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) posted on Wednesday two reports from its work related to assessing the levels of formaldehyde in the indoor air of travel trailers used by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for emergency housing of Gulf Coast residents.
Comment: The two reports should be required reading for anyone buying a mobile home (trailer) and for primary care physicians who care for families who live in such units. At the same time we need to beware of activists who condemn anything that can be measured. Remember, it is the dose than makes a poison.
