Police urge speedy action to clean up home drug factories
Article Abstract:
Congressman Bart Gordon has proposed a bill to fund research into the health risks caused due to the abuse of methamphetamine, a cheap, potent and highly addictive stimulant and to devise standards for decontamination. The abuse of this drug has led to a clutter of toxic home labs where it can be cooked on a hotplate from cold remedies and fertilizers and the mess left behind can affect the health of police who raid the premises, children who live there, and even subsequent tenants.
