In 2010, the U.S. senate passed a $60 billion bill to provide expanded medical care for Vietnam War veterans exposed to the chemical, but the coverage didn’t include heart disease.
According to St. Germaine, the bill also did not link health effects passed down to children and grand-children.
St. Germaine isn’t sure what can be done after all these years, but he has hopes the VA will recognize a link so more research can be done to help future generations.
If you’d like more information, St. Germaine can be reached by calling; 520-906-8477.
