Hmmm ... I can't figger out what that researcher's point is.

Mr. Donnay earns income as a consulting toxicologist specializing in carbon monoxide poisoning and also has patents-pending related to CO testing and treatment from which he does not yet earn income. The review of the HEI MultiCenter Study on CO that he conducted as part of his dissertation research was self-funded.

Are the EPA standards too strict ? Too loose ? IF the original research is flawed/fraudulent/incorrect, then point me to research that IS correct.

From very personal experience - CO *carbon monoxide* - is an extremely toxic gas. Headaches, bright red blood - very destructive of human organs in a very short period of time, takes a long time (up to two weeks) to recover from even mild exposures. Those are pretty well established medical facts. Hemoglobin that attaches to CO has to be replaced - it does NOT recover - the binding of the CO to a hemoglobin cell is permanent - treating with O2 does not repair it - the treatment only increases the O2 carrying capacity of unaffected hemoglobin cells.

Soooooo - what is the guy's point- other than to make a name for himself by saying some EPA study was fraudulent.

The epa standards for CO are reasonable, and life protecting - imo.

Try standing next to an idling diesel (or within a hundred yards on a non-windy day.) You will have a MAJOR headache in less than an hour. That is real life experience for me - don't need no guvmint study to confirm that CO is damned dangerous.

One of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) longest and most successful air pollution standards is based on a taxpayer-funded study plagued by "data fabrication and falsification," according to a veteran toxicologist.

Toxicologist Albert Donnay says he's found evidence a 1989 study commissioned by EPA on the health effects of carbon monoxide, which, if true, could call into question 25 years of regulations and billions of dollars on catalytic converters for automobiles.

"They claimed to find an effect when there wasn't one," Donnay told The Daily Caller News Foundation. "They even fabricated the methods they used to get their results."

"They were spinning this to give EPA what they wanted and commissioned," Donnay said. "They reported results that could not have come from human beings." ...
