Aug 01, 2006 (New Scientist - ABIX via COMTEX) -- Veterans of chemical weapons tests at a British military laboratory have a "lower quality of life" than the general population. A new study shows that people who participated in such experiments, conducted at Porton Down in Wiltshire, suffered from headaches, irritability, loss of concentration, fatigue and sleep problems. The study, conducted by researchers from the University of Oxford, involved 269 men. They all belong to a Porton Down veterans group, which is suing the British government for damages for lost health.
