What are PFAS (“Forever Chemicals”)?

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are widely used, long-lasting chemicals that can break down very slowly over time and persist in the environment.
In some communities, PFAS contamination concerns have raised questions about possible health impacts, including certain cancers.

 Why Elkton / Cecil County?

En December 2024, Maryland announced it filed suit against W.L. Gore & Associates alleging PFAS contamination tied to facilities in Cecil County, Maryland.
This page is for people who believe PFAS exposure concerns connected to a local plant may be relevant to their cancer diagnosis.
Who May Qualify
You may be able to pursue a PFAS-related cancer claim if you:
  • Lived in the affected area in parts of Northern Delaware / Northeastern Maryland, generally for at least 1 year before diagnosis.
  • Were diagnosed with kidney, testicular, liver, or thyroid cancer.
Even if you’re unsure whether PFAS exposure is connected to your diagnosis, you can still share your details for a free, confidential review of potential legal options.
Important: Deadlines may apply to legal claims, so it may help to speak with an attorney sooner rather than later.

¿Sabías?

 
  • Se han encontrado PFAS en la sangre de 97% de estadounidenses. 
  • Los PFAS están en todas partes. Se han encontrado PFAS en nuestros alimentos, envases de alimentos, agua potable, aire, suelo, productos de cuidado personal e innumerables productos para el hogar. 
  • La vida media de PFAS en el cuerpo oscila entre 3,5 y 4,8 años. Esto se debe en parte a su increíblemente fuerte enlace carbono-flúor. Esto significa que podrían pasar décadas antes de que abandonen su cuerpo, de ahí el nombre de "químicos para siempre". 
  • El PFAS se puede transmitir a fetos y recién nacidos. Las madres embarazadas pueden transferir PFAS al útero al comer o beber agua o alimentos contaminados con PFAS. También se pueden excretar a través de la leche materna. 
  • Se han identificado más de 9.000 PFAS. Más de 600 se utilizan actualmente en productos e industrias de EE. UU. en la actualidad. 
  • Hasta junio de 2022, se sabe que 2858 comunidades en 50 estados y dos territorios están contaminadas con PFAS.
