Doing 2 at a time, even if per year, will take over 2,500 years. Just the one #PFOA (and not long after #PFOS) has been on the EPA radar for 18 YEARS. And still no regs. Helluva plan to protect public health on chemicals known to cause cancer...🙄#PFAS

Taken as a whole, the papers show that both industry and regulators understood the extraordinary toxicity of many chemical products and worked together to conceal this information from the public.
