Coast to Coast AM, January 7, 2011:

Host George Noory also mentions that there are more respiratory infections and breathing problems than ever and it's not from the flu... there's something else out there.

2. I have wondered if there is a connection
I don't know if anyone other than this show has made it. And they are fringe at best. I would like to hear more on this possibility though. Clearly, wildlife has been impacted by the spill. There have been previous posts that report odd migratory changes, etc.

3. Those birds may well have traveled over the Gulf.
Scientists are working to lure migrating birds away from the oil in the Gulf of Mexico and toward safe habitat.

At stake is the well-being of more than 50 million birds migrating south to or through the Gulf over the next six months, with the first wave expected in the next few weeks. The Gulf is a rest stop for species that breed in the Arctic and northern Canada and winter in Latin America or the Caribbean, and it's a destination for waterfowl and some shorebirds.
. . .

USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service on Monday launched a $20 million program to pay landowners to idle land, restore wetlands and enhance habitat. The agency hopes to affect up to 150,000 acres in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas.

5. Story posted pre-cover-up?
Seems they are all silent about this possibility now. I have been searching for more articles where anyone connects the two events.
