The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) has posted information on their website which can help you whether you need to have your child evaluated by your pediatrician.

Love Without Boundaries has posted some information on their blog that may be of interest. They state that the contamination is thought to go back to 2006, so any child adopted between 2006 and the present, should have their children evaluated by a physician. Go to their blog to read more.
Also, some concerned adoptive parents have started a Yahoo group so families can share information with each other regarding testing, and the results.
