I just came across the clip below on Digg from Dr. Susan Shaw telling CNN about the dangers of Corexit.

If you haven’t already read it yet, I highly recommend you read my post “Setting The Record Straight On The Safety Of The Use Of Corexit In The BP Gulf Oil Spill” which reviews Dr. Shaw’s presentation at the TEDx Gulf Oil Spill conference and dispels the mistruths being spread by those who claim that Corexit is safe.

The background for that post was “The Amount Of Neurotoxin Pesticide Corexit Sprayed By BP Tops 1 Million Gallon” is also a must read.

Here is my transcript of the video of Dr. Susan Shaw in her CNN Interview.

So I got a very firey sore throat after being in the water.

I had covered myself, all of my skin. So it wasn’t skin contact, the fumes.

But I talked to shrimpers today who were throwing their nets into the water.

It was about a month ago when they were using the more toxic Corexit, the 9527.

The water from the net splashed on his skin and he got a headache that lastest for three weeks, he had heart palpitations, [and] he had muscle spasms and bleeding from the rectum.

And that’s what the Corexit does, it ruptures red blood cells, causes internal bleeding and liver and kidney damage.

This stuff is so toxic combined.

Its not the oil alone [or] the dispersant alone its the dispersed oil that still contains this stuff, its very, very toxic.

It goes right through skin
.

Gulf toxicologist: Shrimpers exposed to Corexit “bleeding from the rectum”

Here is the transcript of a second video clip of Dr. Susan Shaw on CNN warning about the dangers of Corexit.

And with all of this dispersed oil in the plumes that is exactly what they are eating is dispersed oil.

The reason this is so toxic is because of the solvents that penetrate the skin of anything that is going through the dispersed oil.

It [the Corexit] takes the oil into the cells, it takes the oil into the organs very quickly.

And this stuff is toxic to every organ system in the body.

This stuff is so toxic combined. It is not the oil alone [or] the dispersant alone.

Its the dispersed oil that is very toxic and goes right through the skin.

Corexit solvents allow crude oil to penetrate “into the cells” and “every organ system in the body” (VIDEO)
