A reference to the disease mesothelioma often conjures images of men working in the yard or in vermiculite mines in small towns along the U.S. If that is true, however, that men are victims of the most prominent of mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases are not women immune to its development.
In fact, women with mesothelioma cases on the rise as doctors and others recognize that women are very susceptible to disease, primarily through exposure to opportunities, an exhibition, a member of the family of toxic minerals on a daily basis worked. However, the exposure to second hand is not the only way women can develop this disease.
In the course of history, in some countries and cultures, exposure to asbestos occurred in the normal household tasks. For example, women in some Mediterranean countries, including Turkey and Greece, often supervised the task of money laundering of the house.
For those who live in modern times, the term usually refers to the money under a layer of white paint. Historically, however, the money to cover these countries in relation to the process of the use of white (asbestos) from the floor to a house. It has also been used as material for interior and exterior stucco plaster. (A ground asbestos-laced of course in many of these areas.) Toxic minerals has also used on the roofs of the isolation and prevent water leakage. Women (and others) were exposed to dust from the walls and the act of sweep the room with a broom caused more dangerous for circular fibers. It is alarming that white asbestos was also sometimes held talc, people stay for the rest of this toxic mineral.
Studies in these areas, extremely high risks caused by asbestos women and many people still live in nursing homes, and where asbestos is present.
The men were not the only ones who have been exposed to asbestos at work. Women, for example, that the majority of workers in a laundry where asbestos is still present formed. Because asbestos was a good insulator, has been its use in large commercial dryers and other equipment, where heat and the fire was a threat together. Often the asbestos insulation torn or damaged, so that fibers can circulate in the air. Those who clean the facilities, but they have exposed to asbestos dust, sweep the floor.
Asbestos was also used in cosmetics and women in factories for the production of Make-up work and dust inhaled asbestos mineral water can be used on a daily basis. Protective equipment is not for the exhibition was provided regularly.
During the Second World War, the women have been exposed to asbestos through their work in the factories across the country. Because it has done a lot of work normally by thousands of men who were out of the fight against the war, exposure was more common during this time, especially in women who worked in the civilian shipyards, manufacturing plants, steel and power plants, where asbestos was abundant.
