The information contained in this report is based on self-reported statements provided to the registrant during telephone Interview(s). These self-reported descriptions of an incident have not been independently verified to be factually correct or complete descriptions of the incident. For that reason, information contained in this report does not and can not form the basis for a determination of whether the reported clinical effects are causally related to exposure to the product identified in the telephone interviews. With the history as provided by the caller, there is no defined point of direct contact with this particular pesticide. Once the product is sprayed, allowed to settle, and dries, there would be little rerelease of actual material into the air that would cause ongoing respiratory symptoms 7 days after application. Possibility of exposure in this case is negligible, especially since product was applied outside of residence be another user.
