Asbestos is known to cause a wide range of nonmalignant and malignant disease among occupationally and environmentally exposed individuals. Lung cancer and mesothelioma are of special importance. X-rays are evaluated utilizing the ILO classification, and the clinical signs and symptoms of many chronic lung diseases may occur. The fibrous nature of asbestos appears to be important, and fiber size plays a role in carcinogenic outcome. Because of the significant legal and public health implications of exposure, it appears that purposeful obfuscation of asbestos science has taken place. There are also worldwide efforts to shift patterns of use and manufacturing, leading to a wider dissemination of death and disease, especially when coupled with spreading tobacco usage.
