Asbestos in Missouri
For decades, Missouri buildings and products have used asbestos. Because of this, many Missouri residents have been exposed to asbestos and are at risk for contracting mesothelioma cancer.
The symptoms of mesothelioma often take decades to appear, so Missouri workers are at risk even if they were exposed to asbestos decades ago. Examples of Missouri asbestos exposure sites include:
- Missouri factories
- Powerplants in Missouri
- Refineries or Chemical Plants in Missouri
