Original Note:
PFOS do not remain in the body forever, they have a half life of 4 years and are estimated to be completely out of the body after 8 years. Nonetheless, PFOS is detected in the blood serum of almost all people in the U.S., but concentrations have been decreasing over time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfluorooctanesulfonic_acid?wprov=sfti1#Levels_in_humans
