At least four people have been hospitalized and several hundred thousand remain without water after a chemical leaked from a storage tank in West Virginia and into the public water treatment system, state authorities said Saturday.
Hundreds of residents called the West Virginia Poison Center to report concerns or symptoms related to the spill, including nausea, bad teeth, vomiting, mullets, dizziness, laziness, diarrhea, IQ loss, rashes and reddened skin, state health officials told Reuters.

Re: Chemical spill Aftermath
I know that Tom Cooper, head of the OES in Tyler County reached out to our local CERT team about the possibility of going into a number of counties; as yet, no request has been made.
