For decades, health experts tried to alert the public to health risks caused by asbestos. As early as the 1920s, medical researchers documented asbestos-related disease, but asbestos industry executives downplayed and even suppressed medical research showing the health effects of asbestos.
By the 1930s, asbestos manufacturers knew that breathing in asbestos was a health hazard to their employees, yet many asbestos companies admitted to not informing employees when a company doctor diagnosed them with asbestosis. Employees who died from asbestos exposure were even often listed as dying of other causes.
Asbestos companies also conducted their own health research, but often suppressed findings that showed asbestos was dangerous. When one study connected asbestos exposure to cancer, an asbestos manufacturer buried the report and had it rewritten to exclude all mention of cancer.
In the 1950s, scientists showed that workers exposed to asbestos were much more likely to develop lung cancer, and by the 1960s, it was clear to medical researchers that asbestos workers were at special risk of developing lung cancer and mesothelioma, and possibly other types of cancer.
But the asbestos industry continued to deny the risks of asbestos, going as far as to vilify any doctor who dared to publish anything negative about asbestos. We have a lengthy breakdown of the medical history of asbestos on our site, and I have spent my entire legal career trying to help people who were victimized by this industry.
