The government lied about the toxins and such and said that the air was 'safe' at the time of 911. The poisoning of the responders, etc. for some are now just becoming issues.....they may have not showed issues 5 years ago, but now do.....all stemming from 911. So I don't think it's the same people 'coming back' but people who are now just experiencing the aftermath of being poisoned coming forward. Exposure to some of the stuff from 911 takes a few years for the symptoms and diseases to become noticable. Should they be denied care and/or help? No.


Look at the coal mining towns with black lung disease, those who worked with asbestos, etc.......it takes years for the symptoms to show.


Comparing Katrina to 911 is apples and oranges in that respect.
