GenX was basically told that "Teflon is inert, it can't hurt you."
Well fuck me.
Has there been any evidence to point out that PFTE is not inert?
This article seems to be about the production of PFTE, which is well-known to be quite harmful, but the end product is as far as I know not unsafe to use.
From my understanding it's all about unreacted PFAS inside the coating. It's like an epoxy remaining uncured inside due to lack of reaction chemicals.
