"After the deaths of 4-year-old Rebecca Toone and 15-month-old Rachel Toone, the Environmental Protection Agency quickly placed restrictions on the use of the aluminum and magnesium phosphide fumigants used near homes."
The mission of MCS America (MCSA) is to propagate medical, legal, and social recognition for multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) as a disorder of organic biological origin induced by toxic environmental insults; to provide support and referral services to the individuals with all illnesses of environmental origin; and to ensure that environmental toxicants are identified, reduced, regulated, and enforced through lobbying for effective legislation. © MCS America
