LOUIS ENCEPHALITIS; SECOND ROUND OF CITYWIDE SPRAYING TO BEGIN THIS EVENING 12 confirmed cases of St. Louis Encephalitis (including 3 deaths); 89 cases under investigation (including one death) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani today provided an update on St. Louis Encephalitis (SLE) cases in New York City. The number of confirmed SLE cases remains at 12, while 89 reported illnesses are under investigation. The Mayor was joined by Neal L. Cohen, M.D., Health Commissioner; and Jerome Hauer, Director, the Mayor's Office of Emergency Management (MOEM). Mayor Giuliani said, "With no lab results received yesterday from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we continue to have 12 confirmed cases of SLE. Among the confirmed cases, six have been released from hospitals, three are stable, and three, tragically, have died. Nine of the 12 cases are from Queens, two are from the Bronx, and one is from Brooklyn. We are currently investigating 89 cases. Among those cases, 9 are probable, 26 are suspect, 54 are of low probability. Commissioner Cohen said,"To prevent additional cases of SLE, we continue to advise New Yorkers to take precautions against mosquito bites, particularly from dusk to dawn when mosquitoes are most active. Upon the recommendation of the CDC and the New York State Department of Health, we are also continuing our spraying efforts to reduce the chances of any additional SLE infections. It should be noted that all of the confirmed cases of SLE have occurred among individuals who became ill prior to the start of the City's mosquito spraying efforts, and that no substantiated reports of illness were received related to last week's first round of spraying." MOEM Director Hauer said, "Weather permitting, aerial and ground spraying will resume this evening and continue over the next several days until the entire City has received a second application of Malathion and pyrethroid-based insecticides. New York City residents can call the MOEM Hotline, 1-888-663-6692, or log on to the City's Web site, www.ci.nyc.ny.us, for up-to-date information on this weekend's spraying activities." Although adverse effects from the use of these insecticides in the small quantities in which they are being applied are negligible, DOH advises residents, particularly those with respiratory problems, in areas where spraying is taking place, to: •Close all doors and windows and keep them closed for two to three hours after spraying is completed. •Turn fans and air conditioners off, or set the exhaust so that air exits from the house. •Remove children's toys from outdoor areas and clothes from outdoor clotheslines. If toys are left outside, wash with soap and water before using again. The Health Department-staffed MOEM Hotline, 1-888-MOEM-NYC (1-888-663-6692), continues to assist New York City residents who have questions about SLE by providing information on spraying schedules and on precautions to reduce the risk of exposure to mosquitoes. Individuals with questions from outside of New York City should contact their local health agencies. Since September 3 at 4:00pm, when the Hotline was established, it has received over 90,000 calls. Information about SLE and related Health Department releases since September 3, as well as spraying schedules are available on the City's Web site at www.ci.nyc.ny.us #60 Updated: 09/19/99 @ 1400 hours This is the most recent schedule available to date. I also live in park slope and had the same awful experience with the spraying of malathion last night. we have two infants in the house, and we rushed to close the windows, but this stuff is insidious and of course, it was already in the house and we could sense it for hours. although we found the listing in the NYTimes indicating Brooklyn would be sprayed yesterday, there was no listing for an informatin number, and our calls to the health department were met with no help. the whole experience is infuriating.

Blackman General Counsel Director of Corporate Development FIND/SVP >> Subj: Re: Have You Had Your Malathion Today? 9/19/99 Date: 09/19/1999 11:30:34 AM Pacific Daylight Time From: Istorm69 To: ARTISTpres I, too, live in Park Slope. I also witnessed this frightening incident. It was disturbing to see these helicopters spraying the poison across a neighborhood of children, adults, pets, etc. I'm a full-time musician. Last night, I was concerned how dangerous the situation was for me to walk to my wedding gig @ Brooklyn's Botanical Garden. Considering that it lies next to Prospect Park, I assumed that the helicopters must've paid extra attention to that area. I finally decided to take a cab. I was not shocked when my car service driver showed up (LATE, of course) with all of his windows open. However, I was shocked that the bartenders working @ B'klyn's Botanical Garden, admittedly served the entire wedding party their drinks in the very same glasses which had sat outside (face-up) during the handful of helicopter flyby's. I find this to be greatly irresponsible on the part of (1.) the staff of the Botanical Garden (2.) the city administration (3.) the person(s) in charge of organizing the wedding. All the staff members who I spoke with, admitted to seeing and/or hearing the many passes of low-flying helicopters. By chance, I watched the NY1 "caution" broadcast late Fri. Nite. They listed a loose schedule of times & dates when the poison would be sprayed throughout the 5 boroughs. I DID NOT see Pk. Slope listed in the report. Perhaps I missed it. Regardless, this IS NOT enough warning ! What about those who weren't watching ? I ended up arriving to my gig as late as possible so I could best avoid breathing the highly toxic substance known as MALATHION. I decided to spend money on a cab rather than walk to work, in order not to jeopardize my health. This situation is unfair and intolerable ... especially for those who cannot afford a cab ! What can I do with my experience. I wish to bring this to the attention of those responsible, & make them pay for their actions !
