Sure, I’m not saying it’s necessarily a good thing that we’re still using it, but recognizing and treating it as a serious carcinogen rather than something benign goes a long way to improving the amount of harm it causes

It’s not that hard to make and use PPE for the miners. Whether or not it’s enforced is another question, but with how easy asbestos seem to be, they probably are.
