A one-page British magazine article of May 1976 explaining a new voluntary warning label for asbestos products and how to use them safely. It said some workers exposed to high levels "have contracted asbestosis, a lung disease which can be fatal," and that cancerous growths on the lining of the lung (mesothelioma) had been seen in people exposed "to relatively low levels of asbestos, or only for short periods." It gave advice for home use, such as damping materials down and avoiding power tools, and concluded that "Asbestos dust is dangerous."
