The following excerpt is from Duke v. W.C.A.B., 201 Cal.App.3d 8, 248 Cal.Rptr. 213 (Cal. App. 1988):
In Bstandiq v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd. (1977) 68 Cal.App.3d 988, 996, 137 Cal.Rptr. 713, the court cited Nielsen in noting that "[t]he attitude toward allergies has changed". And in this modern day we know much more about the effect on the human body of exposure to chemicals. (Kyles v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd. (1987) 195 Cal.App.3d 614, 620, 240 Cal.Rptr. 886 [exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls].)
