"In the 2010s public health agencies in the EU,[81][82][83] US,[84][85] Canada,[86] Australia[87] and Japan as well as the WHO[12] all reviewed the health risks of BPA, and found normal exposure to be below the level currently associated with risk."

If it has some health effects, they've been incredibly hard to actually pin down..



“Normal exposure” is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence. Presumably having all your daily texts arrive on such paper wouldn’t be “normal exposure,” which if I recall correctly is handling a receipt for a few seconds a day with only your fingertips.
