Meso Killers by Joseph P Shannon

Hard working laborers suffer from mesothelioma most. It develops from asbestos exposure at work, but it can take 15 to 50 years for symptoms to appear. Leaving many diagnosed just in time for retirement.

While companies covered up damaging information, they profited on the labor of those they knowingly exposed to these dangerous products.

Asbestos litigation is the longest-running mass tort litigation in U.S. history, and it has shaped the way mass tort litigation works in this country.

Medical science took time to identify asbestos as the cause of the malignant ailments afflicting tens of thousands of workers. Likewise, the legal system took time to recognize the rights of those workers to compensation for their injuries. As a result, a tidal wave of litigation was unleashed when those claims were finally recognized as valid. This tidal wave toppled many of the worst offenders in the asbestos trade.
