"More than 100 people with brain tumors from same high school in New Jersey"
This really raised an eyebrow when I heard this. I'm sure not all are AN's but it is mentioned in the article. I am very interested to see if the researchers come up with a conclusion. Here is the article link. https://abcnews4.com/news/nation-world/more-than-100-people-with-brain-tumors-from-same-high-school-in-new-jersey-wciv

I work at a small community hospital emergency department.  Of the 9 ER docs, two of us have had AN diagnosed in the past 5 years, and another physician 8-9 years ago.  Curious!  or cluster?

Interesting report.  I think there are potential harmful exposures that most of us are not aware of all around us.

But thank you, both, for posting and participating in the Forums!
