"Q I have severe chemical sensitivities, clinically diagnosed, and because of this, travelling has become a challenge. I would like to visit a warmer climate this winter and was wondering if you have any information on how an airline might treat my sensitivities and what resorts might cater to those of us with this condition?"
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
