While following through in East Palestine, we spoke to residents who took it upon themselves to get medical tests, and they want to know why they tested positive for the breakdown product of vinyl chloride.
EAST PALESTINE, Ohio — A man who lives in East Palestine says he tested positive for breakdown products from vinyl chloride two months after the toxic train derailment, but he has been unable to get solid answers about why it was detected and what that means for his health.
He showed us what he says is his urine test result from last month, which revealed a breakdown product of vinyl chloride.“Yes, this is very shocking. Because I never thought two months out — maybe when we came back for a little while — to see this two months out, almost three months out, it's very shocking,” Cozza said.
"I think at this point we've written, this is at the top of my head, 35 maybe 40 prescriptions, many of those are still out,” Tsai said.He says his own urine test was negative but believes there should be regular testing. "I always have to refer out, so I referred them to a medical doctor and their medical doctor really doesn't know what to do,” Tsai said."Is it surprising I'm not getting answers myself from the clinic?” we asked.
