Asbestos Awareness

Asbestos is a known human carcinogen. People can inhale asbestos fibers into the lungs. From there, they can travel to the alveoli (small sacs at the very end of the airways) and become lodged. These fibers damage the lungs, creating scar tissue, which can lead to a condition known as asbestosis.
