Original Note:
The study being referred to also found this. PFAS concentrations were found to be low and since straw use is seldom, the Belgian researchers said they posed a limited risk to human health. The research did not look at whether PFAS leaked out of the straws into the liquids. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/paper-straws-found-to-contain-long-lasting-and-potentially-toxic-chemicals-study-12947006
