1 Q He said that in 1946. Page 2189 2 Number 3. The incidence of asbestosis among 3 pipecoverers in the shipyards studied was low, 0.29 4 percent or 3 cases out of 1,074. 5 In view of the nature of shipyard 6 pipecovering work, this low incidence is not 7 surprising. 8 Am I correct, what he is saying here, he 9 didn't find much based upon what he studied at that 10 time? 11 A Yes. In the direct examination we talked 12 about the fact he had very few workers with long-term 13 work. 14 Q We will get to that in a minute. 15 Number 4. Since each of the three cases of 16 asbestosis had worked at asbestos pipecovering in 17 shipyards for more than 20 years, it may be concluded 18 that such pipecovering is not a dangerous occupation. 19 Is that what he concluded, Doctor? 20 A Yes, that is his statement. I guess that 21 depends on what you call dangerous.
