Asbestos on NDR: Why the cancer fiber still exists (2019x3)

Udgivelsesdato: Jan 15, 2019

When Gunnar wanted to go to his office at NDR at the end of November, he found the doors closed. Everything was sealed off and no one was allowed to enter the building. The reason for this is a building material that has actually been banned for a long time: asbestos. But the cancer-causing fiber still lies dormant in many buildings from the 60s, 70s and 80s. On NDR, it was discovered by chance during a renovation that asbestos had been installed in a high-rise office building. The station reacted immediately and closed the affected building. In his video, Gunnar and his colleague Jörg Hilbert show you how often the cancer fiber still causes problems today and how treacherous it is.
