    The CDC’s National Center for Environmental Health has described PFAS as “a seminal health challenge.”

    PFAS, known as “forever chemicals,” build up in the blood and organs, accumulating over time. Exposure at even low levels can lead to health consequences. The levels in groundwater and drinking water around military bases have been found to be higher than the standards set by some state regulators.

    Companies responsible for cancer among firefighters may include:

    • Dynax Corporation
    • The Chemours Co., LLC
    • Chubb Fire, Ltd.
    • Corteva, Inc.
    • Kidde-Fenwal, Inc.
    • United Technologies Corporation
    • Dynax Corporation
    • Dynax Corporation
    • The Chemours Co., LLC
    • Chubb Fire, Ltd.
    • Corteva, Inc.
    • Kidde-Fenwal, Inc.
    • United Technologies Corporation
    • Dynax Corporation

    Mounting evidence supports that exposure to PFAS has caused tumors in animals, as well as kidney, testicular, pancreatic, bladder, and prostate cancer. The Centers for Disease Control’s National Center for Environmental Health has described PFAS as “a seminal health challenge”.

    Military Base Residents Exposed to Firefighting Foam Suffer Devastating Side Effects

    The Environmental Working Group reported in April 2020 that drinking water at 28 military bases had PFAS levels well above standards set by some state regulators—in some cases, above 1 million parts per trillion (ppt)—significantly exceeding the EPA’s advisory level of 70 ppt. Exposure to these chemicals has been to cause diseases and medical disorders, including:

    • Pancreatic cancer
    • Testicular cancer
    • Thyroid disease
    • Prostate cancer
    • Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
    • Bladder cancer
    • Ovarian cancer
    • Ulcerative colitis
    • Thyroid problems
    • Preeclampsia

    Cancer-linked Chemicals Found in Firefighters’ Turnout Gear and in Aqueous Film-Forming Foam.

    Cancer is a leading cause of death among firefighters, and research suggests firefighters are at higher risk of certain types of cancers.
