To Dr. Maureen Lichtveld, chairwoman of the department of environmental health sciences at Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, the findings are another example of the inextricability of humans and their habitat.

"In order to find sustainable solutions for environmental health issues, we must take a holistic approach and that holistic approach requires looking at both the environment in the traditional sense of the word and the environment from the human health aspect," she said.
