Dr. Rick Tsai, a local doctor and whistleblower in East Palestine, Ohio shared with Real America’s Voice reporter Ben Bergquam the ailments locals having been facing since the train derailment that plagued the city in early 2023.
“What did you see? So when you’re treating people, what kind of illnesses? What are you seeing?” Bergquam asked.
“So rashes, headaches. I myself suffered welts, a lot of diarrhea. Gastric problems are very common. So I was the only doctor that I know that consistently went against the CDC and tested people’s blood. And a high ratio of people came up with benzene and vinyl chloride metabolites in their blood. The EPA would say, well, maybe they pumped gas that day and got gas on their hands. It’s criminal what happened here and what’s still happening here,” Tsai responded.
