Once inside the body, asbestos fibers irritate healthy cells, potentially causing them to mutate and become cancerous.<\/p>\n<p>A study by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) found that firefighters are twice as likely to develop mesothelioma than the general population. The study specifically linked this higher rate of mesothelioma to asbestos exposure.<\/p>\n<p>The International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) also found that firemen had a 100% higher chance of getting mesothelioma than non-firemen.<\/p>\n<h3>Other Cancers<\/h3>\n<p>Mesothelioma is not the only asbestos-caused cancer that affects firefighters.
