Mesothelioma always linked with asbestos.  Many cases report from asbestos industry worker. There is also an increased risk in family of workers and people living in neighborhoods near asbestos factories and mines. Research says there is no report about safe level in exposure of asbestos particle.

Mesotheliomas typically detect in a long time period after first exposure. Generally in 30 years or more. Unfortunately, the risk of mesothelioma does not drop with time after exposure to asbestos. The risk appears to be lifelong. Some people correlated lung cancer with Mesotheliom but not like lung cancer risk not increased among smoker.
