Bias?

What are the anti-asbestos campaigners afraid of?

They have been lobbying loudly for the WHO to abandon research into cancer rates among 30,000 workers in the Russian chrysotile-mining town of Asbest.

The WHO says it is looking forward to the “important “results to “better quantify the risk” of cancer.

But the ban all asbestos lobby, funded with millions of dollars from the US law firms cashing in on cancer claims, says the researchers are biased and their work unreliable.

Anyone would think the campaigners and their wealthy legal benefactors are not open to a fair debate on the issue?
