Summary
This study looked at whether exposure to PFAS chemicals (often called 'forever chemicals') can weaken the body's immune response to the tetanus and diphtheria booster vaccine. Twenty adults from a community with known PFAS in their drinking water received the vaccine and had blood and saliva samples taken over 30 days. The goal was to see if higher PFAS levels led to lower antibody production.
