Back in the days, asbestos was a major material in building constructions. But according to thorough research and studies, asbestos has been known to cause mesothelioma, a rare cancer caused by this substance. The mesothelioma types of cancer are malignant and develop at the lungs or internal chest walls.

Many who work or are exposed to asbestos dust or fiber are very prone to this very rare type of cancer. Many have also been compensated via asbestos funds or class actions lawsuits. Thankfully, the use of asbestos in buildings and constructions has already been banned due to its health effects. But despite our modern times, there are still structures that exist that are not asbestos-free.
