CDC Updates Website To Include WHO Mold Info

[Guest guest]

From SMH:

Dear Friend of The Center for School Mold Help,

We think you will like this news - CDC has updated its mold info, once

again, at our suggestion! It has included the WHO findings more prominently.

The intro and link to our article, below:

_CDC Updates Mold and Your Health to include WHO info_

(https://www.schoolmoldhelp.org/content/view/1955/1/)

CDC is not yet credible with regard to mold and health, but getting there,

slowly....

_Our letter-writing campaign to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) _

(https://www.schoolmoldhelp.org/content/view/1899/1/) is causing gradual,

significant, positive change in the CDC's mold information. We have noted new

additions to the CDC mold website, added recently - finally mentioning the

WHO's findings more prominently, though these still are not integrated into

the CDC guidance documents for mold and asthma as fully as we think they

deserve. It is encouraging to see that the newly reorganized CDC, with its

new Director, Dr. Frieden, appointed by President Obama, being more

responsive to the public and outside research. The performance of CDC

during the Bush era was dismal, at best. There is a long way to go, and we hope

the new CDC, under Director Frieden will take swift and informed action to

protect Americans from indoor dampness and mold, particularly in our

schools. So far, federal programs have been flawed and ineffective, rendering

our

population, particularly in the schools, languishing in unhealthy indoor

environments, leading to extensive chronic disease.

CDC really has hated to admit that mold harms health, as it claimed for

years that this isn't so. It is time to tell the facts straight - all of

them. Millions are sick as a result of CDC's poor handling of dampness and mold

information. (SMH)
