Welcome to r/science! This is a heavily moderated subreddit in order to keep the discussion on science. However, we recognize that many people want to discuss how they feel the research relates to their own personal lives, so to give people a space to do that, personal anecdotes are now allowed as responses to this comment. Any anecdotal comments elsewhere in the discussion will continue to be removed and our normal comment rules still apply to other comments.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Seeing these maps is always really hard. Lost one of my best friends/late husband (he didn't want to die alone...) when he was 22 and I was 21 to esophageal adenocarcinoma. He grew up in a community that's suspected to be heavily exposed.
