New review of agent Orange presumptive conditions

PAUL ALBERTINE
Vs announcement:

After thoroughly reviewing the National Academy of Medicine (NAM)’s latest report regarding Veterans and Agent Orange, and associated data and recommendations from the NAM Task Force, I have made a decision to further explore new presumptive conditions for service connection that may ultimately qualify for disability compensation,”  Secretary Shulkin said.   “I appreciate NAM’s work and the commitment and expertise of VA’s NAM Task Force, and look forward to working with the Administration on the next steps in the process.”
                The Department of Veterans Affairs will now begin work with the Administration to concurrently conduct a legal and regulatory review of these potential presumptive conditions for awarding disability compensation to eligible veterans.

Bladder cancer, hypothyroidism and "Parkinsons" like disorder...  are under consideration...

Close to 50 years ago... ave age is over 70,  to those that say the results of Orange spraying, like reviewing contents of your refrigerator..."if it looks bad, it probably is bad"  hopefully it saved more lives than it took...
