We'll never know for sure, but we did find very high levels in the time period when they were on the Flint River water.

You have to make sure you don't put too much of it in the water. And there was no way that they could prove that they weren't exceeding the recommended dose, there's a maximum allowed amount, even for industrial applications. And they have no way of proving that, that level is not being exceeded.

We have to come up with a paradigm to help these communities help themselves. Louisiana is the worst case.

A-List Actor But F-List Scientist.

I will not stand by, silently, as any false claims are made about dangers in Flint water….whether they were made by the State of Michigan falsely claiming the water was safe before October 2015, or by an actor who came to Flint after the federal emergency was declared and made unfounded allegations that the water was dangerous for showering or bathing.

From every single scientific perspective, the more water a resident uses, the better the water is going to be.

I can't help but comment on the qualities that seem to be valued in administrators at the EPA: willful blindness, in this case to the pain and suffering of Flint residents; unremorseful for their role in causing this man-made disaster; and completely unrepentant.

I guess being a government agency means you never have to say you're sorry.

They are not worthy of the public trust, they are unscientific. They care more about their reputation and perceptions than they do about endangering little children.

What's clear is that there's an association, which means that the increase of the Legionnaires increased pretty dramatically, and there's a strong likelihood that it's related to the water supply.

This is already a tragedy, it's a crisis of conscience in government. This could potentially just add to it. But they're being very forthcoming about it at this point. There are just so many places where you wish people had done things differently.
