Asbestos and its historical link tragedy and compensation

Exposure to asbestos was being reviewed, mesothelioma, one as early as 1870 as E. Wagner connection acknowledged the disease combined. Two cases of mesothelioma asbestos caused also by Joseph Lieutaud about 3,000 autopsies examined. Although this disease examined up 1960s will continue, many fast-growing lung cancers had already realized before that time. Mesothelioma was hit, where thirty-three cases of the disease in persons at the age of 31 to 68 years old have been identified only after the 1960s of a recognised disease on a report by a South African mining community. More cases were reported also by those, close to the mining plant, lived, despite the fact that the patients were not employees of the mining facilities.
Trace asbestos effects
Asbestos, a known biological stimulants, first was for home use, such as insulation, seals, floors and roof tiles. It was also often used for shipbuilding, brake pads and many other products. Due to its widespread use the number of exposure to asbestos cases have grown over the years, and many people have been infected with asbestos-related diseases. Most of these diseases are life-threatening so many deaths from the inhalation of asbestos fibers can be traced.
The first recorded diagnosis of an asbestos-in connection was related illness in 1924. A woman died due to asbestosis. She worked with the deadly material, when she was a teenager. Given the fact that the dormancy stage of the disease takes years, asbestosis succumbed to her body only 23 years. Shortly thereafter, other diseases were as mesothelioma and lung cancer to exposure to asbestos, explain why linked there so many "young death" years before the first case was discovered by asbestosis.
There are three main types of malignant mesothelioma is diagnosed based on a biopsy of tumor cell assays. About 50 to 70% of mesothelioma are the Haemangioendothelioma. This type has the best chance for survival or forecast. The other two types are the Sarcomatoid (7-20%) and the mixed/biphasic type (25-30%). Treatment options for all three types are the same. Unfortunately, the overall prognosis for patients with malignant mesothelioma remains poor.
In 1931, the Government made to laws, the "asbestos diseases," they call as valid excuses, are covered by the work missing. Stressed the need of ventilation by such laws, which is why organizations working with asbestos increase to the workspace and provide needed equipment for ventilation.
The creation of asbestos lawyers
Such as asbestos, health threats through quickly known to the public that was produced many companies, and published by asbestos attempts to hide the truth about asbestos and even withheld information shows that there was asbestos in their workspaces. This paved the way for more people to asbestos victims. Then brought proceedings against a number of companies, but some of them not justice for the victims to bring.
Lawyers began, setting up groups, the devoted to regulating the use of asbestos and defence asbestos victims. Courtroom, there were further WINS for the victims, and therefore laws, limiting the use of asbestos eventually were adopted.
