FILE NAME Manville JMA DATE 1968 Sept 16 DOC JMA049 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION Report - Asbestos and the General Public id September 16 1968 ASBESTOS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC People of virtually every nation in the world benefit from the many uses of the mineral asbestos Asbestos helps to build safety and durability into schools houses ships aircraft and ." public buildings With the increasing use of this mineral fiber the question has been raised as to whether asbestos especially when suspended in city air poses any health risk to the general public The > same question is being asked about many other materials in general use in our modern society Medical and scientific research is being conducted to find answers For asbestos some of the answers are already in To the extent that any asbestos fibers are in the general air +~ and there are literally hundreds of different animal vegetable and mineral fibers in the dust of the air -- there is nothing to show that these are a health hazard for the public To see why this is so requires understanding of how and why asbestos is used of some of the scientific research that has been conducted and of the meaning of this research with regard specifically to those with occupational exposures in contrast to the general public More MODERN USES GROW OUT OF ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE The word asbestos is from the Greek it means unquenched or incombustible The peculiar properties of asbestos have fascinated people ever since the mineral was discovered more than 4,500 years ago Although in the raw state it is as dense and compact as the rock which encases it asbestos can be separated into light silky fibers These fibers have many uses They can be woven into combustible fabrics for such things as fire curtains for theaters or protective garments for firefighters They can be added to other materials to produce floor and ceiling tile roofing shingles siding asbestos pipe and many other useful products The earliest known use of asbestos goes back 45 centuries Objects unearthed by archeologists in Finland indicate that it was used to hold together pieces of pottery before the clay was baked According to legend the Emperor Charlemagne owned a magic asbestos table cloth which his stewards cleaned after royal banquets by throwing it into a fire then retrieving it intact Marco Polo found asbestos cloth on his journey to Asia and was told that it was woven from a salamander skin but he later learned its true origin . a More MINERAL PROVIDES SAFETY AND DURABILITY In the twentieth century . asbestos has become an increasingly essential material of an improved way of life and an expanding industrial economy Asbestos has many vital functions in construction transportation and industrial processes It provides built protection against fire and deterioration in scores of common products in daily use Through the years it has saved countless lives and billions of dollars in property damage by preventing or checking the spread of fires Electrical installations are safer because of asbestos insulation When used as packings and gaskets asbestos promotes the efficient operation of industrial machines and pumps In transportation the brakes on vehicles ~- cars trucks buses and trains -- are dependable because asbestos is a chief component in brake linings OCCUPATIONAL RISKS AND STEPS TO PROTECT WORKERS To meet the increasing demand for this invaluable fiber a worldwide asbestos mining and processing : industry came into being As in many other mineral and materials industries the need developed to protect employees against occupational health hazards More 4 It was found that some workers exposed to excessive asbestos dust over a period of years developed a malignant lung disease called asbestosis As with many similar conditions asbestosis is time related -- that is it develops only after inhalation of excessive concentrations of asbestos dust over a period that averages 17 years Some medical studies have reported an association between the disease asbestosis and an increased risk of a certain type of lung cancer bronchogenic Even though the number of lung cancer cases among workers heavily exposed to asbestos fiber is only a small fraction of the total employed the industry considers the problem serious It is the subject of considerable scientific research through statistical clinical and pathological studies of exposed workers through experimental studies with laboratory animals and through studies of the physical and chemical nature of asbestos and associated minerals In the recent past the asbestos industry has invested millions of dollars in equipment and techniques to prevent the inhalation of asbestos dust by workers in the mining and milling of asbestos and in the manufacture of containing products A program of education and training is conducted for asbestos fabricators and applicators to provide them with a thorough under- standing of potential risks and encourage general adherence to sound industrial hygiene practices 5 Studies in asbestos industries in England and the United States indicate that where dust control measures have been taken the risk of lung diseases among the workers has been greatly reduced NO RISKS TO GENERAL PUBLIC SHOWN IN STUDIES Because of the occupational health hazards associated with asbestos some people who are concerned about general air pollution have raised the question of whether there is asbestos dust in the in constitute air sufficient quantities to a health risk to the general public Studies of asbestos exposuraned human health of the general evidence public have produced no | of any health hazard to the general public from the use of finished asbestos products Asbestosis does not occur among the general population it occurs only among those with time heavy occupational exposures There is no evidence that anyone has ever contracted any disease from exposure to the wearing or weathering of brake linings floor tile roofing or other products containing asbestos particular Brake linings in were States Public Health Service report the subject of Jeremiah Lynch a 1968 of the
