Press Release Body = Abdominal mesothelioma is rare. That is what the people in
charge would have you think. If Pleural Mesothelioma is so rare, how do you think,
more than 2000 to 3000 new patients are diagnosed every year?

The fact is Abdominal Mesothelioma used to be a rare form of cancer which made a
symptomatic appearance 30-50 years after exposure to Asbestos. You see the only way
to contract Pleural Mesothelioma is by being exposed to Asbestos. Before 1980 there
were no laws protecting the workers from Asbestos exposure in the workplace,
however, once it was seen that people working in an environment of Asbestos exposure
were being diagnosed with Pleural Mesothelioma 30-50 years after their exposure,
laws began to change.

Just imagine you work for 30 years in an industry and when you near retirement age
you or your loved one contracts Abdominal Mesothelioma.

What is Pleural Mesothelioma
Pleural Mesothelioma cancer is a malignant form of cancer found in the sac lining of
the abdominal cavity or around the lining of the heart. It\'s a fast and deadly
cancer as once the symptoms develop it divides at a swift rate and complications are
created within a year. The survival rate is nil and the life expectancy once the
pleural Mesothelioma cancer develops is hardly two to three years, if you are lucky.

Asbestos Exposure and Pleural Mesothelioma
80% of all Mesothelioma cases are for workers in the asbestos industry. The disease
is more common in men between the ages 50 and 70 and is contracted through the
occupational hazard.

Most laws emerged but as yet, fail to give complete protection to the workers in the
Asbestos industry. People working in shipyards, mines, insulation factories etc are
still as viable to get pleural Mesothelioma as they were decades ago. Malignant
Pleural Mesothelioma causes death. The fault lies with your employer.
