reading this with interest, I went through the agent orange testing at the VA but they certainly never mentioned Malathion. I worked in the Entomology(pest Control) shop in the 432CES at Udorn. We used Malathion a good deal. The mosquito spraying was Malathion and then we sprayed a liquid mixture for larva control in the standing water in many places and we sprayed the dog runs at the K-9 kennels for the working dogs very regular. I can't remember now but it was either every week, or every two weeks. I even have and old 8mm of us doing the spraying out there one time. I too have health issues like most of us do and can only wonder if there is a connection with any of the chemicals that I used while doing this work.

Has anyone made a connection with Malathion exposure and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia?
