These results are in marked contrast to comments recently by Senator Rand Paul (KY-R) claiming that no new coal dust regulations are necessary because the mining industry does a pretty good job of stopping black lung disease all by itself. The new study, to be published in the peer-reviewed medical journal Chest concludesĬontemporary occupational dust exposures have resulted over the last decade in rapidly progressive pneumoconiosis and massive fibrosis in relatively young West Virginia coal miners, leading to important lung dysfunction and premature death. West Virginia researchers have discovered that coal miners working in mines with legal amounts of coal dust are still contracting and dying from black lung disease. New study adds to evidence about the need for tougher rules to end black lung disease Klingerstown 1794 1 Lykens 11 Forrest & MulberryAtlas 1793 8 R.
