Default Fish Oil and PCB's

There was an article on the internet earlier this week talking about tests finding PCB's in fish oil capsules. Sounded as though it was somewhat premature like all of these so called studies. In a small test sampling levels were found to exceed labeling requirements yet well below the maximum levels recommended by the World Health Organization. Are there brands of fish oil capsules out there that contain minimal amounts of PCB's? It was suggested that fish oil coming from a "single source" like from salmon might contain lesser amounts of PCB's. I asked my doctor, he had not heard about the report and did not seem concerned.

Question: Is there anything on earth that has't been blamed for an early & untimely death. Air, water, global warming or cooling, beer, wine & tobacco to mention a few. This is a new one I guess.
