The link between cigarette smoke and asbestos illness has been highlighted by a new medical research project.
The research also extends to West Australia's Pilbarra region where another Aboriginal
community was exposed to significant levels of asbestos.
If one is exposed to asbestos they have a bigger risk of lung cancer and scaring on the lungs, but in combination with smoking, it's many, many more times likely to get lung cancer.
So it's the two together which are the deadly combo.
