Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) affect everyone. To put that into perspective, PFAS are found everywhere from arctic ice samples to our own blood—both places you would not expect, let alone want to find a man-made chemical. In trying to understand the magnitude of the situation, we look to the Department of Defense (DoD) who is arguably…
