Here is another great site full of info on mesothelioma.

Mesothelioma Doctors

Because mesothelioma is so rare, representing about 0.3 percent of all diagnosed cancers annually, and has no known cure, people who have the disease are urged to find a specialist to treat it. Doctors trained in asbestos-related diseases typically provide the highest quality of care for mesothelioma patients.

The Mesothelioma Center has a Doctor Match program to help you find and get appointments with mesothelioma experts at leading facilities across the country. Patient Advocates strive to find the leading specialists with the most resources to offer mesothelioma patients. Connect with a Patient Advocate or call (800) 615-2270 to take advantage of this free program.

Air quality directly relate to mesothelioma as studies have shown that a lack of adequate ventilation often leads to asbestos exposure. Homeowners without proper air purification equipment risk inhaling and ingesting this material, which fractures into small particles when exposed and leads to the cancer called mesothelioma.

Here is an exerpt of an email I received from Christian Diaz from mesothelioma treatment.net :

"The modern rise in respiratory illness and diseases resulting from indoor air toxins highlights the need to ensure these threats get addressed. While mold can present numerous health complications, the presence of asbestos poses yet another threat your visitors deserve to know about. Like mold, asbestos is frequently found in older buildings, infecting the air and putting entire families at risk."
