Federal health officials are in Charleston this week discussing options for medical monitoring after a January chemical spill contaminated water supplies to 300,000 people.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state health officials say they are a few weeks to a month away from deciding how to track people’s long-term health.
The spill spurred a tap-water ban for four to 10 days.
Hundreds of people went to the emergency room in the two weeks after the spill, many after a tap-water ban was lifted. Some common symptoms were rashes, nausea, vomiting and itching.
