El programa MiChEM es un esfuerzo continuo para recopilar datos sobre la cantidad de ciertas sustancias químicas en la sangre y la orina de los habitantes de Michigan, incluidos plomo, mercurio y PFAS. Este programa ayudará al MDHHS a comprender más sobre la exposición a sustancias químicas de los residentes de Michigan. Participar en MiChEM es completamente gratuito. Los invitados al programa recibirán un paquete por correo con una invitación al programa e información sobre este.
