I’m from that area, they banned C8 and basically relabeled it Gen-X.

About 20 years ago they offered residence $400 for a “simple” blood test but they also signed a waiver those that took the money couldnt sue.

Of course preying on a community with low income many participated, the fucked up thing is they allowed children to participate and the paperwork included they couldn’t sue either so basically parents signed their life/decision away for a measly $400.

They’ll ban it and just keep coming out with something new that takes years to research.

Reverse osmosis helps, one water company asked DuPont to pay for the city to have a RO installed at their local water plant and they said no and offered carbon filtration instead which literally does nothing for the new gen-x.

At the very least they should pay up to redo all public water works to RO or offer some kind of credit back to residence that have individual systems installed in their homes.

DuPont/Chemours can get fucked.

With that and leaving on a positive note, donating blood/plasma has shown to reduce the levels of forever chemicals found in one’s body. Of course you’ll just pass it onto someone else who needs it but that’s probably not a concern obviously for the person needing a transfusion.
