Is there any link between Agent Orange from Vietnam and the disease Lupus?

There is some evidence suggesting a potential link between exposure to Agent Orange, a herbicide used during the Vietnam War, and an increased risk of developing autoimmune diseases, including lupus. Studies have indicated that veterans exposed to Agent Orange may have higher rates of certain health conditions, but definitive causal relationships are still under investigation. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs recognizes some health issues related to Agent Orange exposure, but lupus is not universally included in these recognized conditions. Overall, while there is a potential correlation, more research is needed to establish a clear connection.

There has been no scientific trials that confirm the connection with Agent Orange and Afib but the VA has added this to things that may have been caused by the agent. Other problems that can be associated with Agent Orange are PTSD, attention deficit disorder, skin cancer, prostate enlargement among others. But just because the VA and the courts have ruled that vets can get treatment, it doesn't mean that there is actually any direct correlation.
