FORCES - EVIDENCE - THE EPA ETS FRAUD - The US federal court decision
JUDGE OSTEEN'S ORDER
Judge Osteen granted Plaintiff's (the tobacco industry's) motion for partial summary
judgement, ordering that Chapter 1 to Chapter 6 and appendices in the EPA's
"Respiratory Health Effects of Passive Smoking: Lung Cancer and Other
Disorders,"
(December 1992), be vacated.
According to Black's Law, Fourth Edition, the term "vacated" means:
To annul;
to set aside; to cancel or rescind; to render an act void; as, to vacate an
entry or record, or a judgement.
In layman's terms, Chapters 1 to 6 and appendices to that 1992 EPA secondhand
smoke report
no longer exist. Therefore, the following conclusions, as taken verbatim
from Chapter 1, page 1, of the report, do not exist, and must be disregarded:
· 1.1 Major Conclusions of the EPA
*THE US FEDERAL COURT RULED:
*VACATED
· "Based on the weight of the available scientific evidence, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has concluded that the widespread
exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) presents a serious and
substantial public health impact."
*VACATED
· In adults: "ETS is a human lung carcinogen responsible for approximately
3,000 lung cancer deaths annually in the U.S. nonsmokers."
*VACATED
· In children: "ETS exposure is casually associated with an increased risk of
lower respiratory tract infections LRIs) such as bronchitis and pneumonia.
This report estimates that 150,000 to 300,000 cases annually in infants and
young children up to 18 months of age are attributed to ETS."
*VACATED
· "ETS exposure in casually associated with increased prevalence of fluid in
the middle ear, symptoms of upper respiratory tract irritation, and small but
significant reduction in lung function."
"ETS exposure is casually associated with additional episodes and increased
severity of symptoms in children with asthma. This report estimates that
200,000 to 1,000,000 asthmatic children have their condition worsened by
exposure to ETS."
*VACATED
· "ETS exposure is a risk factor for new cases of asthma in children who have
not previously displayed symptoms."
