Hearing Addresses WTC Health Problems

Article in today’s Washington Post — Hearing Addresses WTC Health Problems, by Devlin Barrett of the Associated Press:

    The father of a police detective who died after breathing in dust from ground zero
    wreckage told lawmakers Friday that the government has spent too much time studying
    the health problems that killed his son.

    “We must make the first priority the treatment of the heroes to improve their heath and
    save their lives. The studies should be secondary,” Joseph Zadroga, father of New York Police    
    Department Detective James Zadroga, told a House subcommittee hearing near the World
    Trade Center.
