Type of article: Article
Summary
Use of the general term SBS to describe the various forms of building related, or supposedly building related illness is no longer valid. It is used to describe conditions where the cause is not determined. Such illness needs to be more scientifically defined in terms of the symptoms and the certainty or probability of their origin.
