Data show PFAS air pollution correlates with blood serum measurements; current measurements are higher than expected, which one researcher says is "an underestimated and potentially important source of exposure"
The largest risk may be in young children. Researchers postulate they may be exposed to more PFAS in the air than in foods and drinks. The chemicals are associated with harm to the immune system, thyroid and mammary glands and reproductive system
DuPont and Daikin, producers of 6:2 FTOH, the most prevalent PFAS found in the study, knew of the dangers to human health as early as 2010 but hid the information from the public and the FDA
Shanna Swan, environmental and reproductive epidemiologist, believes current projections from recent research may result in zero sperm count in humans on or about 2045, in large part from exposure to PFAS
Manufacturers are voluntarily phasing out some chemicals, but it may take up to 4.5 years to complete, and the phase-out addresses only a few of the over 4,000 PFAS chemicals in use
