The 9/11 Attacks are Still Going On with Asbestos Based Cancers
A clinical review on the many new cancers and health issues arising from 9/11 experienced by first responders

Recent news shows a lot about asbestos-related cancers due to 9/11 exposure because when the Twin Towers collapsed, all the asbestos (from tower 1) and other insulation chemicals that were part of those buildings were atomized. And when you breathe that stuff in, in small particles that have been micronized from the explosion and compression phenomena, when those particles get lodged in the lungs, the body doesn't have a good way to excrete it.
Asbestosis is a well known disease going back decades related to the asbestos industry and the use of asbestos to insulate everything from boilers in residential houses and boilers and heating pipes in commercial settings for many decades. And it's been known that people that worked with this material or breathed in or mined this material or removed this material or at an increased risk for asbestosis and asbestos related lung cancers.

Recently, it's also been shown that because of the chronic inflammation that the asbestos fibers may cause in the lungs and, in concert with other chemicals that were absorbed through the lungs from exposure to the 9/11 dust and crap that was aerosolized, the incidence of a great many cancers has (now) been spiking. This is all due to the more common lung related cancers that you might expect (or cancers in the kidneys and liver) and many others that has affected just about every organ and every system in the body.
Asbestos acts as a synergistic agent for accelerating and magnifying the effects of other toxins because the asbestos fibers have no place to go. The body has mechanisms to deal with many toxins and over time, the concentration of these toxins decrease in the body- which is true for many of the petrochemicals and organophosphates and things that were inhaled. Not true for the heavy metals that were inhaled in 9/11 because the body has very poor mechanisms for dealing with heavy metals that are inhaled or ingested in any way.

And the chronic inflammation caused by asbestos is something that has been leading to the occurrence of a great many cancers at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) who is finally posting lists of cancers that are related to this whole process. For many years, this was ignored and minimized traveling on the belief that "people get cancer and die anyway". But lately, government epidemiologists are finally facing the fact that the exposed individuals are getting more cancers and dying faster than people not exposed.
The attitude surrounding 9/11 stems from the announcements made on 9/11/01 and 9/12/01 where high ranking officials publicly said that the air was safe to breathe and that there is no problem. So that set the stage for years of wrongful exposure to toxic chemicals that stayed in the environment for decades.
RESIDUAL TOXIC DUST: SLEEPER CANCER AGENTS AWAKENED
Another common post-9/11 cancer case comes from a patient who had an air duct cleaning business with years of exposure to cleaning out the dust from air ducts in lower Manhattan - the same dust traveled from 9/11. Her cancer case was identified as a 9/11 related cancer on the CDC list contracted from the same dust which the disaster responders were exposed to. This is a disease that is impacting people regardless of their age, their ethnicity, their place of employment. Their exposure to the original 9/11 dust can occur if they have a job that exposed them to the cleanup efforts in New York City and elsewhere. Moreover, cleaning out dust from air ducts in buildings (that were boarded up and closed for many years after 9/11) that have been recently renovated and reopened are re-exposing people this many years later to that sort of residue.
