<blockquote>
<p>Many PFAS such as PFOS and PFOA pose health and environmental concerns because they are <strong>persistent</strong> organic pollutants; they were branded as <strong>"forever chemicals"</strong> in an article in The Washington Post in 2018.[10] Some have half-lives of <strong>over eight years</strong> due to a carbon-fluorine bond, one of the strongest in organic chemistry.</p>
