| Abstract | Of 1157 South Carolina physicians queried, 667 reported they had seen 572 cases of pesticides poisoning during the year ending July, 1969. One third of the cases, with a morbidity rate double that of the state, occurred in the Sixth Congressional District, an area characterized by intensive tobacco and cotton farming. |
