Road accidents are not infrequent everywhere in the world, but when they involve poisonous and dangerous chemical compounds, they represent a hazard and an issue for public health. In this commentary, we briefly review a recent East Palestine event and one of the chemicals primarily involved with a predisposition to initiate a carcinogenetic process. The author reviewed, as a consultant, numerous chemical compounds for the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a trusted agency of the World Health Organization. Something is looming over the territories of East Palestine, Ohio, United States, draining water from the soil. We speculate that there is a dark and opprobrious fate for this area of the United States due to the potential increase in cases of pediatric hepatic angiosarcoma, which will also be revised in this commentary.
