Federal Warning On Tuna Planned
Mercury a Danger To Fetuses, Children
I think what is most troubling is that the FDA stopped testing fish
for mercury in 1998 and has since relied on the fish industry to
police itself. National Fisheries Institute president Dick Gutting
says that, overall, the industry's tests show that mercury is not a
problem.
