"...In conclusion, it could be stated that car battery and PV module fires may pose a threat to firefighters health not only during fire events, but also later, when they are under repeated exposure to toxins accumulated on their clothing. Therefore, it is essential to conduct further research on the effectiveness of the available cleaning methods, which the authors of this manuscript plan in the near future. This would enable to develop new guidelines for contaminated firefighters clothing handling and cleaning...."

Until now, I never considered the possibility of long-term damage created as a result of an EV battery fire. Either damage to the environment...or physical damage to firefighters that fight these fires. Wait’ll the firefighter lawsuits crank up.
