Recently, a man from Arkansas filed a new Paraquat lawsuit, claiming that his repeated exposure to the chemical between 1964 and 1973, while working in agriculture, led to his development of Parkinson’s disease. His lawsuit seeks compensation, asserting that his suffering was caused by the manufacturer’s negligence. Despite substantial scientific evidence linking Paraquat to serious health risks, the company failed to warn consumers about the dangers of the product. The lawsuit also highlights that Paraquat has already been banned in countries such as China and Switzerland due to its toxic nature.
