Asbestos Factoids:

 

Asbestos has been classified as a known human carcinogen by many federal and state environmental and public health agencies.

-------

Breathing airborne asbestos fibers has been linked to a number of lung diseases and cancer.

-------

Humans can be exposed to asbestos fibers when material containing asbestos is disturbed during renovation or demolition projects, or during abatement activities.

 Because asbestos fibers remain in the body, each exposure to asbestos increases the likelihood of developing an asbestos related disease.

Many of these diseases caused by asbestos (asbestosis, mesothelioma, lung cancer) take between 15 and 40 years to be diagnosed
