Narrative:

Tks fluid hazmat contamination of cockpit. Entire fleet was scheduled to have tks anti ice system run day before on scheduled weekly test to try and prevent system clogging and failing. Pilot noted fluid residue on aircraft throughout day. While enroute at end of day I had cabin vents open; tks off; I noticed noted throat irritation; voice becoming raspy; and difficulty breathing/ tightness in chest. Tks (a hazmat) msds warns of these symptoms with exposure. Multiple flight crews experiencing tks contamination of cockpit and suffering health effects noted on warnings of msds. Flight crews very concerned about long term health effects of tks on crews. Some crews including myself have been unable to operate cars after operating tks system on aircraft. This is dangerous!
