People who worked at the above job sites or work places before the mid-1970’s were likely to have had direct exposure to asbestos dust and, therefore, may be an increased risk of asbestos disease now.

Note: In addition, family members of these people who worked around asbestos fibers on the job may have had so-called secondhand asbestos exposure from household activities such as washing the worker’s clothing or, even more unexpectedly, from simply giving a welcome-home hug daily upon the worker getting back to the house each day.
