- wobblyasp 6y agoThat was the going assumption as far as I understood (I'm from the area). They're hasn't been direct health advise on areas to avoid either, so it's slightly disconcerting.
- throwaway316943 6y agoBathurst and Moncton are far enough apart that I’d rule that out.
- giantg2 6y agoI would generally agree, except in wonder what the aquifers/groundwater looks like in that region and also the sea water along that coast (likely more of a biological source than an industrial one in that case, I think).
- throwaway316943 6y agoMy bet is on either bacterial or agricultural source contaminating well water.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoWhy do you think that, and what do you mean by "agricultural source"?
- throwaway316943 6y agoWell water contamination is common and people are increasingly neglecting to test on a regular schedule. One of the symptoms listed is gastrointestinal upset which makes me think it could be something that was ingested. They mention that Roger’s condition has stabilized now that he’s in a care home, tenuous but it seems location change resulted in change in progression of symptoms. By agricultural I mean waste from livestock.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoWhich of these is isolated to agriculture pollution, but not industrial pollution?
