Camp Lejeune’s Toxic Water Illnesses

What are the Effects of Contaminated Water at Camp Lejeune?

The CDC, working with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, has conducted numerous studies on the health effects of the toxic water contamination at Camp Lejeune. The VOCs, heavy metals and other cancer-causing toxins found at Camp Lejeune have been linked directly to a number of diseases and illnesses.

Am I Going to Get Cancer or Another Disease from Camp Lejeune’s Contaminated Water?

Not everyone exposed to the contamination will develop related illnesses. Factors like personal habits regarding daily water intake, overall health, and other biological factors will also impact your risks for these issues. For the people with the most severe effects, this contamination was life-altering. Widespread miscarriages, the debilitating symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease, and fatal cancers have robbed generations of dedicated families of the quality of life they deserved. The “Honoring Our Pact Act” gives the courts a mechanism to right those wrongs and deliver justice to the families who have been impacted.
