One wonders if this man can be any more heartless. Or clueless. As for the initial 9 clean up workers who were hospitalized with complaints of dizziness, headache, shortness of the breath and nausea?

TONY HAYWARD:

I am sure they were genuinely ill but whether it has anything to do with dispersants and oil, whether it was food poisoning or some other reason for them being ill. You know food poisoning is surely a big issue when you have a concentration of this number of people in temporary camps, temporary accommodations, it’s something we have to be very, very mindful of. It is one of the big issues of keeping the Army operating. You know, the Army is marching on their stomach.
