http://truth-out.org/buzzflash/commentary/health-dangers-of-fracking-revealed-in-johns-hopkins-study A new study out today from Johns Hopkins inEnvironmental Health Perspectives <http://www.eenews.net/assets/2016/08/25/document_ew_01.pdf> revealed associations between fracking <http://www.ecowatch.com/fracking/> and varioushealth symptoms <http://www.ecowatch.com/study-links-fracking-to-asthma-attacks-1931702783.html> including nasal and sinus problems, migraines and fatigue in Pennsylvanians living near areas of natural gas development. The study suggests that residents with the highest exposure to active fracking wells are nearly twice as likely to suffer from the symptoms. This is the third study released by Hopkins in the past year that connects proximity to fracking sites with adverse health outcomes. Last fall, researchers found an association between fracking and premature births and high-risk pregnancies <http://hub.jhu.edu/2015/10/12/fracking-pregnancy-risks/>, and last month, found ties between fracking and asthma <http://www.jhsph.edu/news/news-releases/2016/study-fracking-industry-wells-associated-with-increased-risk-of-asthma-attacks.html> . _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
