Did they ever? “ A 2007 Hopkins study found a lower-than-average occurrence of cancer in the neighborhood. But compared with the demographically similar Chevy Chase community, Spring Valley had more cases of arsenic-related conditions that affect the kidney, lungs, skin and bladder. Citing a general lack of understanding about the long-term effects of chemical weapons exposure, the report suggested conducting another study later. “What we want to do is follow up on the health outcomes that were raised in the [2007] scoping study, in addition to the arsenic-related cancers that we looked at last time,” Hopkins researcher Mary Fox said.“ [/quote]
