"Anybody that was exposed, we encourage them to seek medical attention immediately," a California public health official stated.
On May 5, more than 50 farmworkers outside of Bakersfield, California, were exposed to a highly toxic pesticide that apparently drifted from a nearby field—at a high enough level that "twelve people reported symptoms of vomiting nausea and one person fainted," reports the television news station Kern Golden Empire. "An additional twelve workers did not show signs of any symptoms," the station reported. "However more than half of the farm workers left before medical aide arrived."
Public health authorities took the poisoning quite seriously. "Anybody that was exposed, that was here today, we encourage them to seek medical attention immediately. Don't wait. Particularly if you're suffering from any symptoms. Whether it's nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, seek medical attention immediately," Michelle Corson, public relations officer at Kern County Public Health, said in an announcement to the TV station.

Chlorpyrifos is moderately toxic to humans, and exposure has been linked to neurological effects, persistent developmental disorders and autoimmune disorders. Exposure during pregnancy retards the mental development of children, and most home use was banned in 2001 in the U.S.[6] In agriculture, it is "one of the most widely used organophosphate insecticides" in the United States, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and before being phased out for residential use was one of the most used residential insecticides.[7] On March 29, 2017, EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt denied a petition to ban chlorpyrifos.[8]

Let's see how they can spin chemicals proven to make people sick as being ok. Maybe they say dems liked it first so that's a good reason.

So we should ban the selling of Rubbing alcohol because is used incorrectly and drunk, it can get people sick?
Pesticides are dangerous chemicals, the key is proper application. In this case they fucked up the application.

Chlorpyrifos was first registered for use in the United States in 1965 for control of foliage and soil-born insects.[7] The chemical became widely used in residential settings, on golf course turf, as a structural termite control agent, and in agricultural use. Most residential use has been phased out in the United States; however it remains a common agricultural insecticide.[7]Trump's EPA Greenlights a Nasty Chemical.

You made a blanket idiotic statement and I called you on it.
Of course pesticides can make people sick, they can kill insects easily, them being harmful to humans isn't much of a stretch.
but you made the blanket statement of chemicals proven to make people sick being "OK"
Rubbing alcohol can make people sick if ingested. Should it be "ok" or not?

Tell us all how this application was wrong? Because rubbing alcohol has to be swallowed. This chemical doesnt. So go one Mr Wizard.
Tell us all how the chemical proven poisonous isn't really poisonous after poisoning.

In this case the idiots probably didn't take into account the wind when applying the pesticide, which is why it ended up in another field and exposed the workers.
It actually is considered moderately poisonous to humans, but lethal to insects, which is why it is called a pesticide, and why we normally don't gargle with said pesticides.

So you don't know what happened you're just using "probably" as a cover for why the poison poisoned people?
I'm trying to understand your defense. It's not the poisons fault it's poison?

it's the fault of the people who probably didn't apply it properly. Pesticides are poisons by definition, but good luck doing modern large scale agriculture without them.
