Talk:Cancer cluster

Skin cancer?

From the entry:

"Historical examples of work-related cancer clusters are well documented in the medical literature. Notable examples include: scrotal cancer among chimney sweeps in 18th century London; osteosarcoma among female watch dial painters in the 20th century; skin cancer in farmers;...."

Is the skin cancer from sun exposure or something else, say direct contact with pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers? The other examples list disease and cause but not the farmers. 24.15.131.32 (talk) 23:34, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Not from the sun. I wrote that a long time ago so I don't recall the exact cluster, but it's probably from pesticides. Viriditas (talk) 00:46, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

That's it?

How 'bout following some superfund activity. This is despicable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Longinus876 (talk • contribs) 18:59, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
