Asbestos and Mesothelioma Reports

Ten thousand Americans die each year from asbestos-related diseases, and those diseases are responsible for one out of 125 deaths in men over age 50, says the Environmental Working Group.

There are a multitude of occupations where workers have developed mesothelioma as a result of asbestos exposure. Use this section to read reports on specific instances.

Mesothelioma & Asbestosis Mortalities Across the US: 1979-2001 (c/o EWG)

“We have seen first-hand how asbestos has wreaked havoc on Americans working in naval shipyards, automobile plants, and the construction industry. Most often this is through their employers’ conscious choice for profits over a worker's health.”

-- Joseph Patrick Williams, a trial attorney in the Asbestos Litigation department of Weitz & Luxenberg
