This List brings up to date the exposed people who have cunditions to be
_considered for compensation.
The diagnosis of hypothyroidism has been based
on a number of sensitive tests of thyroid function.
It is quite likely that
other exposed Marshallese will develop Gompensatable
conditions in the future.
We have several additional suspicious cases at present.
