Sometimes but every old time farmer round here died of cancer. I sprayed roundup from 14 to age 22 daily on the farm with a backpack sprayer, i am about to be tested for lymphoma the 22nd, I believe round up did it and I will be suing them if it is.

Of course you will. Lots of folk dream of hitting the “lawsuit lottery”. I sometimes wonder what caused lymphoma BEFORE Roundup was invented.

Wow, that’s astounding. Whatever did they die of BEFORE Roundup was invented.

Been using it and other weed killer for years. Do I cover up and wear a face mask? Yep; most the time.

The EPA has said for 40 years that glyphosates don’t cause cancer. If it could be proven that it does then the EPA is who should be sued but good luck getting much out of it.

I think Bayer will win this in the end.

Not just cancer.

My dad would walk around the yard with the roundup spray in his hand, then come in and make himself a sandwich. He died of Alzheimer’s. You wonder.

Those old farmers were using nastier stuff than Roundup to kill weeds in the old days

Hope your tests find no lymphoma/cancer! Friend used Roundup on her lawn and her 1 y/o dog has lymphoma. Will keep you in prayers for good results.
