The biggest study in the US to date showing ⬆️PFAS are linked to ⬇️ birthweight. In not just 1, but all 5 PFAS detected in 11 pregnancy cohorts across the US. Thank you @ECHOChildHealth for making this possible and @EPA for starting to regulate PFAS in drinking water!

Here’s one more reason we don’t want PFAS in our water, our homes or in our bodies. Our latest study in 11 ECHO cohorts across the US found PFAS in pregnant people leads to lower birthweight.
NEW STUDY: "The evidence is clear: PFAS are having an adverse impact on birth weight." - Lead author PRHE's @PadulaAmy

Good thing #EPA is finally starting to take action.
