Headaches, weakness, nose bleeds, coughing and difficulty breathing are only a few of the symptoms felt by people in the community.

Dozens of doctors in Palm Beach County came together this morning to explain the exhaustion they’re facing as hospitalizations from #COVID19 climb. The docs also pleading for the community to get vaccinated saying it’s safe and the only way out of the pandemic. @WPTV @FOX29WFLX

#Lubrizol, le "bon voisin" avec ses employés à #Rockton les récompense de leurs services rendus en les indemnisant à coup de lance pierre. Et certains élus croient en leur #bienveillance... La #chimie est un monde de chacal et #rouen n'échappe pas à la règle #industrie #Dollar

[Union Des Victimes De Lubrizol @UVLubrizol]

Eric Schnur a bien disparu de la place de PDG de #lubrizol. Il semblerait que les catastrophes à répétition de #Rouen et #Rockton, et les fuites de Mercaptan du Texas aient eu raison de lui... @WarrenBuffett aurait-il fait sauter un gros fusible ? #seveso #chimie #MILLIONBOYS

“I’m asking Lubrizol to be fully here for us now. There’s still a chance to do the right thing,” said Taylor Vronch who worked for Chemtool for more than seven years. https://t.co/nP4xpKsEOr

Come on, @LubrizolCorp, do the right thing.

CHEMTOOL CUTS: Chemtool employees say a new severance package introduced by Lubrizol will cost workers at the plant thousands of dollars. https://t.co/k1OQCgAmW4

[Citizens for Chemtool Accountability @ChemtoolFire]

@Chemtool_inc employees state @LubrizolCorp severance policy had included them, but now they're being told it doesn't.

New on the blog, @SierraClub Toxics Policy Advisor @sonyala explores the use of toxic #PFAS in firefighting foam following the Chemtool, Inc. explosion in Rockton, Illinois, & why these toxic products continue to be used in emergency responses. Read more: https://t.co/XwbEwy5zkG

Chemtool didn’t just blow up a factory, they blew up people’s futures. Rockton Chemtool workers deserve severance in keeping with Lubrizol’s stated Severance Policy.

[Juanpablo Ramirez-Franco @__juanpab]

Lubrizol wouldn't answer any questions related to severance packages for ChemTool employees. So workers living in the evac zone don't even know if they'll be allowed to sign on to lawsuit against the company if they they accept the deal. https://t.co/ulTgJjenA4

[Illinois Sierra Club @SierraClubIL]

BREAKING: "Illinois will take a first step toward reducing the use of firefighting foam containing harmful 'forever chemicals' under a bill signed into law by Gov. J.B. Pritzker Friday." Thank you, @GovPritzker! Read more from @brettchase of @Suntimes: https://t.co/0d49ArGO3i

Aujourd'hui, @LubrizolCorp devrait annoncer le licenciement d'une bonne partie des employés de #Rockton suite à la l'incendie de leur site. Encore une démonstration du #BonVoisin à la hauteur de la bienveillance d'Erik Schnur #scandale #abandon #emploi #PollueurPasPayeur #Honte

[RouenRespire @RouenRespire]

Tout notre soutien en ce jour décisif aux employés de CHEMTOOL,Rockton, Illinois, dont leur emploi est menacé . Lubrizol doit assumer toutes ses responsabilités. @EALindquist @UVLubrizol @Lindgaard @ManonLoubet2

[Robert Bilott @RobertBilott]

Those who actually caused worldwide #PFAS #foreverchemical contamination should pay the costs - not taxpayers or those exposed/injured:

Les données apportent un éclairage sur les substances, mais ne livrent aucune précision sur les conséquences sanitaires potentielles ⬇️ #Lubrizol #Normandie #Rouen https://t.co/2a6DEZ2tAD

Out of an abundance of caution, many folks impacted by the Chemtool disaster pulled up their vegetable gardens. As avid gardeners will understand, this was a difficult decision.

"The more pressing issue to Mills is future testing in the area. He recommends weekly testing of Rockton's overall water supply with a slightly scaled back regiment for monitoring well and private wells."
The Village of Rockton is NOT doing increased testing.

[13 WREX @13WREX]

DIGGING DEEPER: As Rockton residents wait to see the results of the private well tests to gauge possible water contamination, we spoke to an expert to break down the current data released by the EPA and whether people should be concerned for their health. https://t.co/ST76i2LPUP
