Default mercury poisoning from Tuna

I feel it is my duty to educate whenever the need arises. There was an intelligent 5th grader who all of a sudden could not calculate, catch a baseball or football. Several wrong diagnosis from physicians (do your own homework - just because they are a doctor does not mean they know all or keep up with the education units required to practice). Finally, the true diagnosis: mercury poisoning from Tuna fish. Diagnosis confirmed with blood tests and not discussion (notice how the doctors are NOT doing exams and tests - they want to sit and talk). The FDA and EPA argued about the TUNA and caved in to Bumble Bee, SunKist, etc. A quote I liked: "They think the tuna industry is their customer and not the public". You cannot trust your government to protect you. The government is no different than a CEO: self-serving and gratifying, and out for profits. Swordfish, Tuna, Shark, and Mackerel all have levels of mercury that are toxic to children and preganant women. What do you think about the government properly educating the public on health hazards? Will you continue to consume these fish products? Are you concerned about the safety of the foods you eat from chemical poisoning? (the source of contamination: industry dumping into the water chain).
