Family Poisoned By Methyl Bromide at Luxury Resort

A U.S. family vacationing in St. John was apparently poisoned by methyl bromide, a highly toxic pesticide the use of which has been severely limited in the U.S. Exposure to methyl bromide can result in nausea, abdominal pain, weakness, confusion, pulmonary edema, and seizures. Neurologic effects can be long-lasting and even permanent.
