Who Is at Risk of Paraquat Exposure?
Paraquat is designated as a “restricted use pesticide,” meaning that only farmers and agricultural workers who hold special licenses can use the product legally. However, paraquat is heavily used in the agricultural industry, and many farmers across the country have used it for pest control on their farms. Exposure is most likely to occur in the following ways:
- Mixing or loading paraquat
- Spraying paraquat
- Maintaining tanks and equipment used to spray paraquat
- Spending time in fields where paraquat was sprayed
Paraquat is an aerosol, and if there are high winds in the areas where it’s used, it can drift into neighboring communities and contaminate the air. This has caused innocent families and children to unknowingly inhale chemicals that will seriously jeopardize their health and wellbeing, which is especially unacceptable when they don’t use the toxic product themselves.
Do I Qualify for a Paraquat Lawsuit?
Syngenta’s failure to disclose the side effects of their product has caused families worldwide to endure watching a loved one lose their motor control to Parkinson’s disease. Not only that, but they’ve continued to act unethically despite scientific evidence that clearly shows the danger of their product, allowing more and more farmers to unknowingly purchase a product that could endanger their wellbeing. Their actions aren’t just unethical, they’re illegal, and those who were harmed by their negligence could be eligible to recover the damages they sustained.
At Morgan & Morgan, we understand how important it is to receive the fullest extent of the compensation you’re entitled to. Without it, you’ll be forced to pay for the damages out of your own pocket, which is unfair considering you purchased the product without knowledge of the risks. Our Pennsylvania paraquat attorneys are backed by the resources of America’s largest personal injury firm, meaning that we have the capability to hold out until your compensation accurately reflects the true value of your damages.
How Do I Know if I’m at Risk of Developing Parkinson’s Disease?
Parkinson’s disease can take years to develop after your initial exposure to paraquat, which can make it difficult to know when you should seek medical treatment. However, there are early warning signs of Parkinson’s disease that are shown through your motor skills, so you should visit a doctor if you notice any of the following:
- Hand tremors
- Prolonged or extreme stiffness
- Difficulty with body movements
- Loss of balance
- Difficulty walking (slow gait, shuffling)
- Difficulty or soft speaking
- Reduced facial expression, blank stare
- Drooling
- Suddenly small handwriting
- Trembling
- Whole-body fatigue and dizziness
- Amnesia/confusion in evening hours
- Disturbances in sleep
- Anxiety or apathy
Although Parkinson’s is a lifelong condition, it doesn’t mean your life is over. There are many different therapies and treatments available that can help improve your quality of life in the future. If you believe that additional rehabilitation services will help you in your situation, speak with your attorney about how to pursue compensation for future treatment through your lawsuit.
