[StBernard] mecury house

[Westley Annis]

There was a nameless posting about the Corinne house with mercury. So I will
be anonymous, too.
There are a lot of things that are just misinformation in that posting, and
exposure to mercury does not cause fever. The facts will come out as the
sheriff and EPA complete the de-contamination and find the source and cause.
Nearby homeowners have had their properties tested, and their air monitors
are not detecting anything in the air outside this house. The
de-contamination is confined to this one house and the family who moved
there in April. Please wait until the facts are out so as to not alarm
people needlessly. EPA has told the media this has nothing to do with the
Murphy Oil spill nor the flood. The EPA told neighbors this happens about 50
times a year across the US and it is 99% caused when a member of the
household brings it into the building, school, or home or breaks an object
containing mercury.
