Mesothelioma Compensation Center Asks People Exposed To Asbestos At Work To Call About Compensation And Shares ABC News Article On Asbestos Exposure Near A Factory
(PRWEB) December 11, 2014 -- The Mesothelioma Compensation Center says, "We just happened upon a news article covering the story of people dying in their hometown from mesothelioma due to a former asbestos factory. What we could not find anywhere in the article is anything on the mortality rate of actual factory workers. Our conclusion is that most workers who had first-hand exposure to asbestos on a daily basis are not well educated on how bad this disease is."
"The bottom line is that asbestos exposure is a terrible thing, and if you or a loved one has been diagnosed with this rare form of cancer we are urging you to call us at 866-714-6466 so we can carefully explain how incredibly vital it is to have the nation's best mesothelioma compensation lawyers advancing you mesothelioma claim." http://MesotheliomaCompensationCenter.Com
The article referenced by the Mesothelioma Compensation Center is titled, “Rise in mesothelioma cancer cases reported near former Melbourne asbestos factory”. According to the article, "A rise in mesothelioma cases near a former asbestos factory in Melbourne's west has been reported by the Victorian Cancer Registry.
"In the 12 years to 2013, 16 people developed the disease within two kilometres of the Wunderlich site in Sunshine North. Mesothelioma is an aggressive asbestos-related cancer affecting the lungs and abdomen. Victorian Health Department spokesperson Bram Alexander said the increase was not unexpected. When you consider that this asbestos factory operated from back to the 40s and up until the early 80s, it's not unexpected to find occupational-related illness associated with people engaged in business with people in the factory."
