Fish caught in the fresh waters of the nation's streams and rivers and the Great Lakes contain dangerously high levels of PFOS, a known synthetic toxin phased out by the federal government.
"The analysis focused on EPA wild-caught fish in rivers, streams and throughout the Great Lakes from 2013 to 2015, as that was the latest data available," Andrews said.
Yet many people in lower socioeconomic groups, indigenous peoples and immigrants in the U.S. rely on eating freshly caught fish. Many of these longer-chain PFAS can be stored for years in different organs in the human body, according to the National Academies report. Scientists are examining the impact of newer versions.
