We've been using PFAS for 80 years now. Are the children of heavily exposed people actually contracting diphtheria or tetanus at measurably higher rates?
Again, the headline figure you're quoting sounds alarming, but if it's accurate and applicable to the broader population, then we should be seeing that effect outside the lab as well.

- peteradio 3y agoDon't the kids of mothers heavily exposed wind up deformed?
- resolutebat 3y agoEntirely possible, but that's quite different from them being more vulnerable to diphtheria, which was the specific claim made earlier in this thread.
