Shocking study reveals household pesticides increase childhood leukemia deaths by 60%

A new study published in the journal Cancers has uncovered a disturbing link between pesticide exposure during pregnancy and a dramatically increased risk of death in children diagnosed with leukemia. The federally funded study, conducted by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), examined 837 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common childhood cancer. The results were alarming: children exposed to pesticides during pregnancy had a 60% higher risk of death, while those exposed to rodenticides faced a staggering 91% increased risk of death.
