Letters to the Editor: Hooray for the government scientists and regulators protecting ordinary Americans

LA Times  

Vials of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine are displayed. Health officials in Southern California recently warned of potential measles exposure at Los Angeles International Airport and a local hospital. The U.S. Department of Agriculture will begin testing raw milk for the H5N1 bird flu that has infected farmworkers, and the National Tsunami Warning Center in Alaska issued a rare tsunami warning after a 7.0 earthquake hit off the coast of Eureka, Calif. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration oversees safety standards and ordered manufacturers to recall Honda SUVs and Ram trucks. Two local county health departments reported the movements of people with measles at LAX and an Orange County hospital, which places young children, pregnant women and immunocompromised people at risk.
