I've have nothing to add, but I did read San Juan Basin Health webpage and found it worth bringing over here - since I like science and rational reactions to real threats. I also believe in allowing serious experts to figure it out best they can and I appreciate it takes time. Remember these are the same scientists who have been crying their warnings for years and advocating for us to take these threats seriously and take precautions, become prepared. But who paid heed.
