During this multi-year project, MDHHS will assess Michigan firefightersâ average exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which are chemicals commonly found in Class B firefighting foams used to fight fires involving gasoline, oil and jet fuel.
These chemicals are also known as “forever chemicals” because of their resistance to breaking down in the environment. They have also been linked to a number of adverse health effects.
