Time to ban asbestos.

The countries which export asbestos have banned usage within their countries almost half a century ago.

I dont know why our learned politicians are dragging their feet on this.

We should thank the medical staff for prompt action taken to treat them.

It looks like this allergic reaction has nothing to do with Asbestos. Asbestos fibers if inhaled will cause lung cancer. But one must breathe in an asbestos contaminated area. Asbestos-related cancer is officially known as mesothelioma, it effects the lungs.
