Editor’s Note: This manuscript was accepted for publication on April 24, 2009. On May 9, 2009, the Conference of the Parties 4 of the Stockholm Convention (COP-4) in Geneva placed perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctane sulfonyl fluoride (PFOS and PFOSF) in Annex B (see below for other included substances). Due to our production timelines, it was impossible to have this article appear prior to the COP-4 meeting (began May 4, 2009). Therefore the conditional/future tensing within this article, now made moot by the COP-4 decision, has been edited into parentheses. Much of this paper describes the toxicological considerations of PFOS/PFOSF that led to its inclusion. Taking the information in this Viewpoint article, readers may wish to consider the placement of PFOS/PFOSF as argued by the authors. According to the press release of the (COP-4) May 9, 2009 resolution (http://chm.pops.int/Convention/Pressrelease/COP4Geneva9May2009/tabid/542/language/en-US/Default.aspx), the compounds listed in this paper were assigned as follows: PFOS, its salts, and PFOSF - Annex B, pentabromodiphenyl ether - Annex A, hexabromobiphenyl - Annex A, chlordecone - Annex A, pentachlorobenzene - Annex A and Annex C, lindane - Annex A, α- and β-hexachlorocyclohexane - Annex A.
