Mariyam Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 As of now 8 people including a child have lost their lives and over 5000 people have fallen sick after a styrene gas leak from an LG Polymer plant situated in Vizag/Vishakapatnam. Loss of livestock reported too. Some reports suggest that styrene is a carcinogen and hint at long term after effects. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/visakhapatnam/vizag-over-1000-fall-sick-after-gas-leak-from-chemical-plant/articleshow/75590112.cms Lets pray that the administration is on top of this and casualties are minimized.

It led to a chemical reaction, and the heat was produced inside the tanks, which caused leakage. said ACP West Zone Visakhapatnam. #Vizag Edited May 7, 2020 by Stan AF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
