NYC Questions 9/11 Worker Symptoms

The NYTimes reports today that the city of New York is taking an aggressive approach to the 9/11 workers who allege health issues:

The city’s review, based on medical records submitted in federal court by the workers and their lawyers, found that as many as 30 percent of the workers reported nothing more than common symptoms like runny nose or cough. Their records, according to the review, did not indicate that doctors had ever diagnosed a specific disease.

In fact, more than 300 workers admitted in court documents that they were not ill at all.

The workers’ attorneys, unsurprisingly, disagree.  Well worth reading.
