La Paz, Spain. Dr. Angel Peralta on 5-12-81 received a telephone call from Spain's health ministry ordering him to say nothing about the epidemic (that killed 1000 & seriously wounded 25,000 there) and certainly nothing about organo-phosphorus poisoning. In 1983 WHO convened a medical conference in Madrid that formally ratified the Spanish government position that cooking oil was to blame for the poisoning. Oil merchants were tried and found guilty of poisoning. But Muro and his colleagues thru months of independent research found the poison source: pesticides on tomatoes from Almeria (a corporate agriculture center). In 1985 Muro died of a mysterious illness and his findings have never yet been accepted by the Spanish government. No cooking oil contaminant has yet been found by labs around the world to be the source of this La Paz poisoning. In 1989 a similar outbreak probably involving organo-phosphates occured in the USA, first identified in New Mexico, and affected 1500. L-Tryptophan, an amino acid supplement, was blamed. L- Tryptophan has never been shown to be responsible and has been taken by millions of Americans in the 1980s but is now banned in US and Europe. Funding was available for scientists who wished to pursue the official line, but not for those who held different views.
