Alliance asks for public help in curbing experiments that expose humans to pesticides
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
The Alliance for Human Research Protection has issued a call to the public to support it in its efforts to halt human pesticide experiments being carried out by the EPA.
Help us stop a proposed government policy that would lead to the proliferation of unthinkable human pesticide experiments such as the infamous CHEERS experiment.
CHEERS was designed to expose toddlers to pesticides so that EPA investigators could record the effects of the poisonous substance on the children's health.
The EPA failed to convince anyone that CHEERS was a permissible human experiment: it: was terminated following Congressional intervention.
EPA's Propsed Rule is an effort to legitimize experiments like CHEERS and to permit disabled infants, children, pregnant women, not to mention, adults - to be exposed to unethical experiments testing hazardous toxic substances.
EPA's pronouncement that the agency would "categorically prohibit...any study involving intentional dosing of pregnant women, fetuses, or newborns," is a false and deceptive statement.
Because EPA's proposal includes an escape hatch from ALL regulatory protections for human subjects of research under EPA jurisdiction.
The AHRP comments (below) address only some of the proposed regulatory loopholes.
An example that others may want to comment on is section 26.
Help us stop a morally depraved policy from being enacted.
Send a letter and stay tuned AHRP will provide updates as they occur--Together with other advocates we were instrumental in stopping CHEERS-- with your help we will stop this travesty.
