Health Dept rejects child arsenic level allegations
July 10, 2025
|Bangkok Post
The Department of Health has rejected claims that two children living near the Kok River in Chiang Mai were found with excessive levels of arsenic in their bodies, following growing concerns over heavy metal contamination linked to mining activities in Myanmar.
Amporn Benjaponpitak, the department director-general, said yesterday urine samples were tested from 15 residents in affected areas of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, ranging in age from three to over 60.
"None of the samples showed arsenic levels exceeding the safety threshold of 100 microgrammes per litre," she said.
