Selikhoff, a pioneer in the science of epidemiology, is conducting a study of these people. Preliminary findings suggested that PBB consumption caused brain disorders in the form of loss of memory and mental lethargy, immunological disruption, general physical fatigue, and changes in bone and muscle fiber: The new study will be finished later this week, but it is not expected to be definitive...
