Asbestos related deaths
”The number of cases of a cancer affecting workers exposed to asbestos before the 1980s has yet to reach its peak, senior doctors have warned. Mesothelioma – a malignant tumour of the lung lining – now kills more than 1,800 people in the UK each year. But doctors, writing in the British Medical Journal, said a peak in the epidemic was not likely to happen until 2015 at the earliest. They noted that the time between first exposure to asbestos, from sources like insulation and building materials, and people falling victim to the disease was “rarely less than 25 years and often more than 50 years”.This means that thousands exposed to asbestos before regulations were tightened in the early 1980s are likely to be struck down in the future, creating a potential timebomb in the disease.”
