Paraoccupational mesothelioma is a risk for anyone with family who worked in an asbestos-using industry. That daily hug from dad after he got home from work or mom washing work clothes can be enough exposure to cause health problems later on. Much later on.
The mesothelioma's latency period is typically 30 to 40 years. If you breathed in asbestos fibers brought home by spouse, friend or family member as long ago as the 1950s and 1960s and only now be experiencing symptoms.
