What are the consequences of prolonged exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune on the development of persistent illnesses?
The water at Camp Lejeune was contaminated with a range of harmful chemicals, including trichloroethylene (TCE), as stated in the provided information. These contaminants, when ingested or absorbed through the skin, have been linked to various illnesses and health conditions. The specific chemicals present in the water that contributed to these illnesses may vary, but TCE is known to be a significant contributor. Exposure to TCE and other harmful substances in the water over an extended period resulted in health issues such as bladder cancer, breast cancer, female infertility, miscarriage, kidney cancer, leukemia, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, neurobehavioral effects like Parkinson's disease, and others.
03
Why is the progress of the case in the legal world moving slowly?
There is a pattern of behavior in the sluggish progress of the lawsuits, contributing to the delays. Additionally, the increasing number of wrongful death claims and the complexities of determining settlement levels for specific medical conditions related to toxic exposure at Camp Lejeune further contribute to the slow pace. Despite efforts by a team of lawyers representing plaintiffs, no case has gone to trial yet, prolonging the wait for justice. The military's perceived slow response and difficulties faced by veterans and their families in receiving disability claims have also added to the frustration and urgency for resolution in this ongoing case.
