Overseas Network, July 28. According to a report by Fuji TV, Japan, the rivers and tap water around the U.S. military base in Okinawa Prefecture in Japan recently detected the harmful substances "PFAS". A citizen group in Okinawa had spontaneously arranged surrounding residents for blood testing. Experts will call on the Japanese government to take corresponding measures as soon as possible according to the test results.

PFAS, that is, full fluoride and polyfluorohomyl substances, is mostly used for making food packaging bags, non -stick cookers and military fire foams. Once accumulated in the human body, it takes decades to discharge. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said that PFAS will affect the human immune system and circulatory system, leading to excessive weight of newborns and carcinogenicity. The latest research results also show that PFAS will weaken the effect of vaccination for children.

The residents around the U.S. base in Okinawa in Japan have spoiled and expressed concerns about the issue of pollution. Some residents said, "This is a very serious issue, and I am very worried that it will affect the child." "I think the government should make a difference." "Water water." It is directly related to our lives, and the government should take measures to protect residents' health. " To this end, a resident group of Okinawa County and Kyoto University conducted blood testing for more than 350 people in related regions. Kyoto University's environmental sanitation expert Uranga Hiroshi said that in the case of the Japanese government's willingness to act, it is very meaningful for residents to conduct scientific testing by themselves. The results of this survey will be the first step in promoting government management. (Overseas Network/Wang Shanning Internship Compilation/Fan Xin)
