A March 27, 2007 article posted on the Connecticut Commentary blog and elsewhere quoted ACSH's Dr. Elizabeth Whelan:
PCBs have never killed a single person. On the contrary, they have been lifesaving. Elizabeth Whelan, president of the American Council on Science and Health (ACSH), remarks in her book, Toxic Terror, that "it is likely that PCBs saved lives in their functions of minimizing the risks of fires by replacing combustible insulating fluids." Insurance companies sometimes required that PCB equipment replace the fluids.
