More of the Gulf Coast humanitarian leaders have been hospitalized, the latest casualties resulting in canceling Coastal Heritage Society of Louisiana (CHSL) radio program. Joannie Hughes, Kindra Arnesen and Vicky Perrin of CHSL are ill with symptoms of poisoning. Hughes explained on air from her hospital bed
News via the brief radio show message in the Youtube audio below about these leaders who have been dedicating their lives to try to save others in the Gulf Coast region comes within days of similar tragic news of several of the others on the short list of human rights defenders working in the same capacity along the coast.
Reporter Gregg Hall has tested positive for 6 of 8 poisons in the VOC blood test. This week, the entire Project Gulf Impact film crew were hospitalized with life-threatening poisoning symptoms.
Florida Oil Spill provides a partial transcript from Tuesday's CHSL radio show broadcast that was done inside Ochsner Medical Center, known to locals as Ochsner Hospital, in the Greater New Orleans city of Kenner:
JOANNIE HUGHES:
I am presently calling the show coming live from Ochsner Hospital on Jefferson Highway in New Orleans, where I am a patient since yesterday [Monday, September 28] and at least until Friday. …
Neurologist worried about neurotoxins I was exposed to… and things like that. …
We are not doing the show this week…
Kindra “very ill with staph infection” …
The radio show was to discuss health issues… that’s ironic enough because we’re all sick. (Listen to the program report here.)
On August 18, the Examiner reported:
Kindra Arnesen, the courageous young mother from Venice, Louisiana who became a celebrity by speaking out on behalf of Gulf coast fishermen at the first Emergency Gulf Summit where she exposed the media black-out, has appealed to the nation to understand the nightmare that poisoned people are living and to reach out with help now.
Although American media has censored Gulf news, a recent French special report on the Gulf of Mexico crime against humanity featured Arnesen and her determination to independently research and expose the poisoning of Americans. (See: French report on Gulf 'Beyond Pollution' with Kindra Arnesen (video), Examiner, Sept 18, 2010)
Arnesen has been interviewed for numerous radio programs, keeping the public up to date on the ongoing nightmare in the Gulf region. (See: La emergency summit fisher wife slams media black-out (video) and Gulf news: 'How do we get people to leave?' Kindra Arnesen on Intel Hub.)
Dr. Riki Ott recently wrote in Huffington Post, "A mysterious persistent skin rash has occurred across the Gulf, coincident with BP's release of oil and chemical dispersants. Mobile, Alabama, resident Sheri Allen was one of the first to report its occurrence in early May."
Now Arenesen is among the thousands of children and adults suffering blistering lesions, a symptom of radiation sickness, Corexit poisoning but typically diagnosed by medicos offering no blood tests as "staph infections" and "scabies." (See: Radiation Test Results On Gulf Crude Oil (video) - Page 5?, Jun 19, 2010, Radiation Test Results On Gulf Crude Oil (video) - Page 3?, Jun 18, 2010, Radiation Test Results On Gulf Crude Oil (video) - Page 2?, Jun 18, 2010, RADIATION SICKNESS - Know the symptoms - Protect yourself, Godlike Productions.)
Project Gulf Impact reported:
"Corexit is an agent that has been proven to break down lipid membranes that cover and protect human skin.
Human skin is composed of a thin layer of lipids and Corexit, by nature, breaks down these organized barriers into smaller individual molecules allowing the barrier to become permeable to pathogens. The skin irritation could be caused by prolonged exposure to these chemicals and could break down the ability of the body to fight off infection."
Ott explains that residents and visitors to the Gulf Coast continue to report long-lasting rashes or other skin problems like peeling palms "diagnosed as scabies and staph infections, including MRSA, the potentially lethal Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.
"Most cases lingered for months, as the rash did not respond well to antibiotics, steroid creams, or steroid shots."
People are reporting to Gulf Coast Barefoot Doctors that using the Toxic Survival Detox Kits is effective in easing the rashes and swelling.
Doctors in fear not following precautionary principle
Along the Gulf of Mexico coast and beyond, Americans’ survival is threatened by an unprecedented amount of violence, neglect and the ongoing catastrophe.
Consistently, poisoned victims report lacking access to three things:
1) Blood test for poisoning
2) Accurate diagnosis
3) Proper treatment for poisoning
Medical doctors are not providing these three basic survival needs due to fear after harassed and intimidated according to an Examiner source. Daily, sick people with symptoms of being poisoned report that they are simply mocked when they ask medical staff for a blood test.
The one doctor who was performing VOC tests out of Pensacola, Florida quit after receiving numerous threatening and intimidating phone calls from “government-like people.” He chose to head their warnings.
Ochsner Medical Center is holding a blood donation drive, giving Saints football tickets for home games.
