This resolution officially designates the first week of April 2025 as "National Asbestos Awareness Week." The primary goal is to significantly increase public awareness regarding the severe health risks associated with asbestos exposure and the devastating diseases it causes, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis. The resolution highlights that asbestos fibers are invisible and can cause cancer with symptoms appearing decades after exposure, for which there is currently no cure. It emphasizes the ongoing exposure risks, particularly for workers and in older buildings, and urges the Surgeon General to actively educate the public about this critical public health concern.
