The statement “Of the roughly 40,000 chemicals approved for commercial use in the United States, very few are routinely monitored in the U.S. population” is incorrect. The statement has been corrected to read “Of the vast number of potentially toxic chemicals used in the United States, very few are routinely monitored in the U.S. population.” This corrected statement also cites a new reference: Wang Z, Walker GW, Muir DCG, Nagatani-Yoshida K. 2020. Toward a global understanding of chemical pollution: a first comprehensive analysis of national and regional chemical inventories.
