What are SPFA (“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?

Dans 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.

Saviez-vous?

 
  • Des PFAS ont été trouvés dans le sang de 97% d'Américains. 
  • Les PFAS sont partout. Des PFAS ont été trouvés dans nos aliments, nos emballages alimentaires, l'eau potable, l'air, le sol, les produits de soins personnels et d'innombrables produits ménagers. 
  • La demi-vie du PFAS dans le corps varie de 3,5 à 4,8 ans. Cela est dû en partie à leur liaison carbone-fluor incroyablement forte. Cela signifie qu'il peut s'écouler des décennies avant qu'ils ne quittent votre corps, d'où le nom de "produits chimiques éternels". 
  • Les SPFA peuvent être transmis aux fœtus et aux nouveau-nés. Les femmes enceintes peuvent transférer des PFAS dans l'utérus en mangeant ou en buvant de l'eau ou des aliments contaminés par des PFAS. Ils peuvent également être excrétés par le lait maternel. 
  • Plus de 9 000 PFAS ont été identifiés. Plus de 600 sont actuellement utilisés dans les produits et les industries américaines d'aujourd'hui. 
  • En juin 2022, 2 858 communautés dans 50 États et deux territoires sont connues pour être contaminées par les PFAS.
