Lurking Danger - Mesothelioma

Longterm exposure to Asbestos poisining through more than 2,000 workplace and home based products can cause a deadly disease called Mesothelioma or Asbestosis ( a type of Lung cancer).
Low income housing structures in many parts of India use Asbestos sheets as covering material. But they are carcinogenic (Cancer causing). The Asbestos industry is using media sponsored features and advertisements to twist the truth.
Alternative sources like Steel, Stone Tiles, Clay, PVC fibre and Cellulose Fibre have to be promoted to replace Asbestos.
