520 | |a Local doctor Alison Bleaney was concerned about rare cancers among her patients. Marine ecologist Marcus Scammell had been called in to investigate oyster mortality and deformities. At the same time, the Tasmanian Devil facial tumour disease was first found in the same small pocket of NE Tasmania. Was a connection remotely possible and was there a link to something in the water? Faced with what they saw as government indifference, Bleaney and Scammell launched a private investigation, paying out of their own pockets for expensive laboratory testing. They expected to find pesticide contamination. But they were wrong. Instead, it is suggested, they 'stumbled across' something as significant as it was unexpected. Part 2 of this program exclusively reveals the results of the detective work in laboratories here and overseas... and the worrying implications. | ||
