  • Title: California: Governor vetoes cryptosporidium bill.
    Author: James JS.
    Journal: AIDS Treat News; 1995 Oct 20; (no 233):7. PubMed ID: 11363039.
    Abstract:
    California Governor Pete Wilson vetoed legislation which would have allowed bottled water or home-filtration systems to be a Medi-Cal benefit to those most in need of safe water, such as persons with immune deficiencies. He did so because he believes those unable to boil water for themselves would be eligible to receive attendant services through Medi-Cal. The author states that few people have access to these services and that the real reason for the veto was to save money, even though the increase in costs would have been minimal.
