Final report by an epidemiology consulting firm that projects future U.S. cases of mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis for 1980-2009. It back-calculates the exposed workforce from SEER mesothelioma counts and Johns-Manville case data, and also estimates asbestosis prevalence, asbestosis lawsuits and disease in women. A newspaper clipping on Stanton's fibre-size rat studies is attached at the end.
