Description:This fact sheet summarizes the findings of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) public health report on an initial set of radiological environmental sampling results. These results were collected from the Polycythemia Vera (PV) tri-county cluster area in Carbon, Luzerne, and Schuylkill Counties in Pennsylvania.
Environmental samples from the cluster area were collected as a component of the overall research investigation into the PV disease cluster:
• Indoor air was analyzed for radon.
• Soil, sediment and water samples were analyzed for metals, organic compounds, and radioactive substances.
This ATSDR public health report focuses on an initial set of the radiological environmental sampling information. Additional reports evaluating other environmental and health information from the PV investigation will be released at a later date.
