Description: As a Matter of Law: Steve McQueen's Mesothelioma Diagnosis and Asbestos Exposure Many are aware that famous movie actor, Steve McQueen, died of cancer. But few are aware he actually had a mesothelioma diagnosis. As most are also not aware, Steve McQueen worked in a shipyard as a young man -- where he was likely exposed to asbestos. Asbestos exposure is the only well established cause of mesothelioma. Asbestos exposure is also known to cause lung cancer and colon cancer. A mesothelioma diagnosis occurs many years after asbestos exposure, and may not develop for more than 50 years after the first asbestos exposure. Levy Phillips & Konigsberg, LLP, has experienced New York and New Jersey mesothelioma lawyers. Robert Komitor, who has more than 20 years of experience in mesothelioma lawsuits, discusses the importance of a very detailed occupational history.

There are 2 tyoes if fibres yes ,,Both can cuase terminal illness. The fibres are not hook shaped. The amphobole fibres whch are most dangerous are perfectly straight.

it is fifty years from now..

for now it can strike fifty years from now

i contracted this disease but unlike steve mcqueen, i shrugged it off, it happens!

At the same time asbestos fibres are being looked for possible lung cancers, it might be as well important to look at some radioactive elements being prisoned in those same asbestos fibres. Most of my researches have been done to find if very little radioactive sources could be inducing cancers after a certain time. Cigarette makers have refused to participate to my researches as well as Quebec nuclear plant ownners. I think I am working in the good direction and if it could be helping why not

and if one would disturb asbestos powder?nothing would happen because that would mean that this powder is billion of fibers tuck together,unable to fly in the air. To be lethal the fiber as to be alone. It looks like a hook.Its shape makes it impossible to be taken out. there are asbestos fibers in the air, from nature.the lethal limits where u get 100% chance to breathe one is: 5 fibers per liters of air.

if you can see what you breathe it is asbestos with something else.there are two kinds of asbestos fibers.Only one is lethal.

Does anyone know whether white asbestos dust is visible or invisible? I know that asbestos fibres are invisible to the naked eye, but if one was to disturb white asbestos powder then would you actually see the dust as it was being disturbed, or is the dust itself also completely invisible to the naked eye?

who cares. I know a man that lost his arm and won millions in settlement. he said i'd give back all the money to get my arm back. too bad you're looking at a big check. What about the human element?

If I get mesothelioma can I sue his estate? He was happy to pick up his pay check and expose innocent third parties to asbestos he is just as guilty as the corporations.

video being discussed also in infomesothelioma dot us with details about the disease

white powder of one sort or another was to blame.
