Abstract: This study will assess the association between serum-PFAS levels and self-reported frequency of various groups of symptoms of viral infection (as a marker for susceptibility to viral infections). ATSDR will collect information through 5 surveys administered quarterly over the course of a year. Participants (anticipated n=4,075) will be asked about symptoms prospectively, as well as COVID information prospectively and retrospectively. Survey data will be linked to serum-PFAS levels that have been previously collected for ATSDR PFAS cohorts via survival analysis.
