Abstract
Evidence-based science communication and additional policy interventions are urgently needed to address widespread per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) pollution. Messaging about PFASs should highlight exposure-reduction strategies and prioritize underserved communities. PFASs are not simply drinking-water pollutants; they are substances with myriad exposure pathways that require a systemic federal response.
