    Post: Cigarette smoking and benzene exposure

    Posted by Cherie on 12/10/09


    I grew up 1.5 miles from a chemical plant who is know to be
    associated with benzene, then spent approx 17 years in the
    dry cleaning business where I was exposed to tons of
    chemicals. Now that I developed non hodgkin's lymphoma, I
    can't get compensation because I smoke? I know there is
    benzene in cigarette smoke, but if they know it causes this
    disease, WHY is it still in cigarettes?
