He also said bodily systems also are involved, with multiple symptoms including vomiting and diarrhea, muscle pain, inflammation of mucous membranes, kidney and liver involvement, disorientation or blood infections. Nichols said 90 percent of Utah's toxic shock cases are related to tampon use and the majority occurred during time of menstruation or within two days of the onset. g Pugh: Stop Implying Endorsement the property tax pletely over four years. tion The about Owens has said he would use about $32 million of the state budgetary surplus to cut the mandated local school district property tax levy by four mills next year, then work to phase out the school d district Supreme Court decision made earlier this year.
