Here are a few sources I found:

Granted, some of these are from the Wool Industry, which obviously wants to present a good image of wool.

I understand. I did my research about a year ago. Yes, I googled. I accidently stumbled on to it when I was trying to research exactly what PV was. In my searching I also stumbled over something about "Trench Rot" being a problem with wool in one of the great wars. I don't remember everything, but I believe I posted my findings in a long ago post I made here about the health problems that pants present.

I was warned against wool from my doctor over concerns about various infections and rashes coming back. PV seemed like a good choice at the time, but I have been busy looking up the teflon problem that I just thought about. I am starting to have second thoughts.

Bah. Hemp. The future is in hemp.
