Presidential Advisory Committee on Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses: Special Report

摘要

This Special Report responds to the President's request that we assess by October31, 1997, the government's progress in implementing our earlier recommendations on outreach, medical and clinical issues, research, and coordination. The document also reports our assessment of the government's efforts to investigate possible chemical and biological warfare (CBW) agent exposures. Finally, based on our oversight activities during the past 10 months, the Committee puts forth our recommendation to address the persistent perception that the government lacks the commitment to resolve issues surrounding the health consequences of service in the Gulf War.
