A former U.S. Navy service member from Boerne, Texas, has filed a lawsuit in the AFFF multidistrict litigation (MDL), seeking damages for health issues linked to firefighting foam exposure. The lawsuit names multiple manufacturers, including 3M, Chemours, and DuPont, alleging that their PFAS-containing AFFF products caused the plaintiff’s thyroid cancer and other severe health problems.

The plaintiff claims repeated exposure to the foam during their Navy career led to harmful effects due to PFAS’s bioaccumulative and cancer-causing properties. This case adds to the growing legal pressure on AFFF manufacturers to address the health risks of their products.
