Summary
In this episode of Frontline Findings, hosts Rachel Bozek and Stephanie White explore the latest research from the Firefighter Cancer Cohort Study with Dr. Sara Jahnke and Dr. Jeff Burgess. While early data focused heavily on high rates of miscarriage and lower reproductive reserves in women, the discussion reveals this isn't just a female issue. Male firefighters face severe reproductive risks too, including abnormal sperm and increased rates of birth defects in their children. The conversation moves fast from identifying these statistics to breaking down real, actionable solutions.
