About the Mass Tort and Compensation
Since May 2019, there have been thousands of Monsanto lawsuit claims filed which allege that the common Roundup (glyphosate) weed killer sold by Monsanto’s parent company Bayer can cause severe health risks, including a rare form of cancer. There are several studies which have pointed to a link between the use of Roundup and cancer, especially non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
