On their debut album “Asbestos Mouth” the band TERMS give equal weight to tightly composed precision and spontaneous discovery, weaving together bold new worlds where crunchy dissonant riffs and pulverant, skewed melodies collide and consort with syncopated thunderstorms of percussion.Having served in acts such as Grand Ulena, Jitters and Yowie, TERMS is much more than just the sum of its parts... It is an ever-evolving an aggregate of incalculable expression.  There is some evidence that family members of workers heavily exposed to asbestos face an increased risk of developing mesothelioma ( 12). This risk is thought to result from exposure to asbestos fibers brought into the home on the shoes, clothing, skin, and hair of workers. To decrease these exposures, Federal law regulates workplace practices to limit the possibility of asbestos being brought home in this way. Some employees may be required to shower and change their clothes before they leave work, store their street clothes in a separate area of the workplace, or wash their work clothes at home separately from other clothes ( 2). breathing in asbestos can lead to a condition called asbestosis that leads to an increased susceptibility to cancer Asbestos exposure can also increase a person’s risk of other cancers. These cancers may affect the: La Vecchia, C., Lotti, M. & Colombo, M. (2020, August). Asbestos exposure and increased risk of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: enough to infer causality?

There's no cure for asbestosis once it has developed, as it's not possible to reverse the damage to the lungs.

Mesothelioma is a rare cancer that is mainly caused by asbestos. Mesothelioma takes many years to develop, around 20 to 40 years. Even if you haven’t been exposed to asbestos for many years, it is unfortunately possible to develop mesothelioma.For more information on the classification systems used by these agencies, see Determining if Something Is a Carcinogen and Known and Probable Human Carcinogens.) Does asbestos cause any other health problems? Asbestos fibres are most likely to be released if asbestos-containing material is disturbed, for example, during home renovations that involve drilling, cutting, sawing or breaking of the asbestos-containing material.

If there is a chance you might be exposed to asbestos at work, such as during renovating old buildings, use the proper protective equipment, work practices, and safety procedures designed for working around asbestos. If you’re concerned about asbestos exposure in your workplace, discuss the situation with your employee health and safety representative or your employer. If needed, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the federal agency responsible for health and safety regulations in most workplaces, can provide more information or make an inspection. People with breathing problems such as asthma may be more sensitive to the effects of asbestos. Pregnancy and childrenThe properties of asbestos made it an ideal material for use in a number of products, including insulation material for buildings, boilers and pipes; car brakes and floor tiles, insulating board to protect buildings and ships against fire; asbestos cement for roofing sheets and pipes. This may be done while the area is numbed (local anaesthetic) or while you're asleep (general anaesthetic). there are 2 sub-groups; serpentine (white asbestos) and amphiboles (including blue and brown asbestos) of which serpentine was the more commonly used
