People who have worked for years in diesel fumes, like construction workers and garage staff, more often die from lung cancer than has been assumed until now. So says a draft report by the Health Council which the NOS has.

The report shows that a lifetime of working in a large quantity of diesel smoke leads to seven additional deaths in a hundred workers (to be precise 689 out of 10,000). Until now it was assumed that it was about one extra death from lung cancer.
