In response to this postwhile dying in a burning flame is certainly a terrifying risk, many of these folks won't face life threatening consequences of the work they are putting in right now for many years until the cancers start showing up due to the extreme smoke and toxic fume exposure happening right now to everyone on the ground.
how many of them will have access to adequate cancer care when that happens?
