Tipical the government wants to control the investigation, the causitive factors, and denies responsibility, to offset it's liability, until there are too few to matter, or cost much for disability compensation! I'd bet that the government has not, and will not, investigate if the "Airborne Particles" released into the atmosphere in the directly affected areas of the higher incidents, were not causing the spread of the desease/s! The government will only say that the government is not liabale - for anything - and only funds studies, or investigations that prove the government's conclusions!
