Imagine that
I was reading this the other day and thinking about how exposure among agricultural workers might impact infant mortality rate. If you scroll down, it mentions the damage to potential lung and respiratory tissue. If this is emitted from the skin of individuals exposed then could it be impacting the respiratory function of the children and leading to SIDS? This is a study I could work on but instead I am a digital hostage of the place that trained me. What a world.

Diquat herbicide poisons the gut, may severely damage other organs
Diquat, an herbicide banned in Europe but still widely used in the U.S., damages the intestines and the liver, kidney, and lungs, according to a new review of more than 100 studies.

You don't have to be an agricultural worker to be exposed. For decades have seen the planes and now helicopters spraying the potato fields. As a kid remember parents stopping along side the roads to watch the planes spray the field. How naive we were then.
Signs posted on the edges of the fields say to not enter the field for 48 hours after spraying. The planes flew low when spraying, no drift?
It's close to potato harvest here, before long the fields will be full of not only tractors and trucks bringing in the harvest but people out picking up the potatoes left behind. Free potatoes does come with a cost.
When buying potatoes, buy organic.
I was here early in 2021, then got "spooked". I am back because I want to live. I read a lot. I observe. I listen. I have faith in us.
I know. It is used as a defoliant. Think about all the neighborhoods that have greenways and parks where it might be used and the people that go there. I have no idea what studies have been done on this but it is not good science to claim everything is due to vaccines and ignore anything else that might be causing some of our problems. I also look at the main people pushing this ultra rigid stance and question what the motive might be (money is a big one: instead of using these products now we will use these). I am always of the mind that there is a middle and that is where good science can shine.
