The chemical industry tries to make it seem that MCS is not a real illness or concern.

We are still under siege in this world, especially in the USA.

There is hope in that this article is from January 2001. I know some inroads have been made by some regarding MCS in medical acceptance - even if small. And EWG is also working hard.

I can't elaborate now or look up some things I saved (maybe?) but one woman (who happens to be the wife of some shock jock has gone into hospitals to educate.

We have made a few strides but not enough. So many workplaces, stores, hospitals, clinics and schools are still heavily scented.

You can barely go in them.

also, no protection from toxic substances used by neighbors. I had to move from a neighbors smoke. and someone on another group has been forced to stay in their car due to neighbors careless remodeling project.

Hard to find a safe place to go if your forced out of your home. General public not concerned and even those who care about us may not get it.

So hoping for some progress on this issue.

True. I have to be careful when I go out. When neighbors are washing/drying clothes, the scented junk is awful.

Dryer vents just propel that stuff - even from dryer sheets - all over.

Same with barbeque fluids that so many use.
