How asbestos exposure occurs

Asbestos fibers are microscopic. Asbestos exposure may not only affect one person. A person exposed to asbestos may bring the fibers into their homes, putting family members at risk of mesothelioma from second-hand exposure.

The microscopic asbestos fibers might penetrate beyond the body's natural defenses and travel deep into the lungs. Accumulation in the lungs may eventually lead to development of tumors typical of mesothelioma.

For decades, asbestos has not been a part of manufacturing. Asbestos also no longer has been installed during building construction for its insulation/fire prevention properties. However, the effects of asbestos exposure, including mesothelioma, continue to crop up because of the long period symptoms take to develop from the time of exposure.
