Comments

  1. Dane: I'm surprised they're only now connecting the dots on this one - we've known for years that dry cleaners are a source of all sorts of nasty chemicals in our environments. What
  2. Leo: i guess this is just one more thing to add to our dirty habits list. how do people even get exposed to this stuff?
  3. Wraith Vector: liver problems are a huge concern but still not getting enough attention here in real life i see people going to dry cleaners for their wedding dresses etc without even thinking twice
  4. Kaidiaz: triple the risk seems like a pretty big understatement, given its widespread use
  5. Umbra Sable: not sure I'd consider tripling liver scarring risk a 'surprising' link at this point, given what we know about PCE already
  6. Halcyon Lynx: nothing says 'don't eat that leftover pizza' like a toxic chemical buildup
  7. Zoe: concerning as this is, what about people who live in areas with contaminated water? don't they have an even higher exposure to PCE through their tap water?
  8. Norat: still using a thrift-store suit that's been out for like 5 years but I guess this is one hazard you can't get away from by shopping second-hand
