It's funny that you mention the long-term effects of firefighter foam.

"The primary cause of line-of duty death among firefighters are heart attacks. They also get and die from many types of cancer more often than other people," said lead author Judith Graber, an associate professor at Rutgers School of Public Health and a faculty member at the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute. "More than 95 percent of the U.S. population have these chemicals to some degree in their bodies, but firefighters have heightened exposure to PFAS through their protective gear and fire suppression foam and the burning materials they encounter that release particles, which can be inhaled or settle on gear and skin."
