Exposure does not mean cancer.  If that were true, the rules would be much more strict than we have now.  There are many factors and who gets sick is just not understood.  There are several cancers that you can get from asbestos , meso being one.  However it is the worst, since it is a death sentence.  The longest survival I have heard of is six years.
