Farmworkers who developed Parkinson's Disease after mixing, spraying, or exposure to Paraquat may qualify for Significant Compensation!
✘ Studies link exposure to the herbicide Paraquat to Parkinson's disease, a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder.
✘ Paraquat manufacturers refused to disclose the risk of Parkinson's disease on their label, putting commercial farm workers and licensed agricultural users at serious risk.
"The data are overwhelming," linking paraquat and Parkinson's, epidemiologists report.
A series of major studies found that commercial agricultural workers, including farm laborers, golf course maintenance crews, and greenhouse workers, who were certified and trained to use Paraquat and bystanders exposed to spray drift, may have suffered serious injuries due to the herbicide's toxicity.
The makers of the herbicide Paraquat REFUSED to include warnings on the label, increasing the risk of injury from Paraquat exposure for farm workers, golf course maintenance crews, horticulturists, and others who used or were exposed to the toxic chemical.
Data linking paraquat to Parkinson's is "as compelling as it gets," NIH scientist says.
Paraquat is often used to control weeds in soybeans, corn and other crops, grapes and orchards, pastures and hay fields, and cotton and to defoliate cotton. Studies show that workers who mixed, sprayed, or were exposed to the chemical are at increased risk. In fact, a 2011 study by the National Institutes of Health and the Parkinson's Institute surveyed farmers in North Carolina and Iowa and found that farmers there were 2 ½ times more likely to develop Parkinson's if they were exposed to Paraquat or Rotenone.
...And in 2012, a study found that people with certain genetics who were exposed to Paraquat were 11 times more likely to develop Parkinson's Disease.
