The Mesothelioma Victims Center is urging the family of an older man who had heavy exposure to asbestos decades ago to tell his doctors who are treating him for the Coronavirus about the asbestos exposure. Not everyone diagnosed with COVID-19 has it.

WASHINGTON, DC, December 15, 2020 /Neptune100/ — The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, “We are urging the family of an older man who had significant exposure to asbestos in the Navy or at work decades ago to please tell his treating physicians about the asbestos exposure-if your loved one has been diagnosed with the COVID-19 and he is in a hospital. We fear that 2020 will be the worst year for mesothelioma compensation in two decades
