Because of the long term use of asbestos, the United Kingdom has seen a
marked increase in cases of the asbestos-caused cancer mesothelioma in the
past 20 years. For example, the country's Health and Safety Executive
reports that only 153 cases of the disease were diagnosed in 1968. In
2006,
the last year for which statistics are currently available, 2,056
individuals died of mesothelioma. Projections say cases of the disease in
the UK will peak around 2015, with approximately 2,500 annual deaths from
mesothelioma occurring around that time.
