By: Dr. Marion Carey.

Dr. Marion Carey made a great presentation for The Health Effects of Asbestos Exposure. This is a Mesothelioma PowerPoint slide that he made for the campaign. Dr. Marion Carey is a Senior Medical Adviser which is develops in Social and Environmental Health at Dept of Human Services.

In her Mesothelioma PowerPoint presentations, she talks mostly about what is asbestos. And in her point of view, Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals whose characteristic feature is that they occur as fibers. And the Masses of tiny fibers from dust if disturbed.

On her conclusion, the major route or exposure to asbestos is inhalation. There is no known "safe" level of exposure. Tightly bound asbestos poses no immediate hazard. Asbestos becomes a health hazard when fibers become airborne. Exposure should be minimized by sensible precautions.
