Despite Congressional mandates, research efforts led by the CDC in the 1980s were abandoned due to difficulties in determining exposure levels. The situation is even worse for Vietnamese citizens seeking justice on this matter. This issue has led to decades of legal disputes and tension among Veterans and Vietnamese citizens with the U.S. government.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"documentTitle\"><strong><em>The<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>Use of Agent Orange in the Vietnam War and its Effects on the Vietnamese People<\/em><\/strong><em> <\/em>by Pamela S.

King\u2019s thesis demonstrates the detrimental medical and environmental consequences of Agent Orange in Vietnam, long after the Vietnam War. It critiques the U.S. government for using untested chemicals during the war and its delayed accountability for the suffering caused. The thesis examines the impacts on human health, such as cancer and birth defects, and environmental degradation like soil and water contamination. Moreover, it highlights the responses of the Vietnamese and U.S. governments, the role of NGOs, legal efforts for compensation, and offers recommendations for addressing these ongoing issues.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use of the phrase &#8220;Agent Orange&#8221; from 1800 to 2022 on Google Ngrams:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<iframe name=\"ngram_chart\" src=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/ngrams\/interactive_chart?content=agent+orange&#038;year_start=1800&#038;year_end=2022&#038;corpus=en&#038;smoothing=3\" width=700 height=270 margin=auto marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=no><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"textblock\">The phrase &#8220;Agent Orange&#8221; was most searched in the 1980s, particularly in 1982, after the Vietnam War had ended. This delay in recognition was due to the initial lack of acknowledgment of the harmful effects of this herbicide, which was deployed in Vietnam alongside other Rainbow Herbicides.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agent Orange, the Vietnam War, and Lasting Health Effects by Leo Uzych, Environmental Health Prospectives journal 1991: The text highlights ongoing concerns about the health effects of Agent Orange exposure among Vietnam War veterans.
