We also take strong exception to what appear to be intentional misrepresentations of our paper. For example, Egilman et al state, ‘‘Fordyce’s et al study report [sic] 2 mesothelioma cases in a cohort of 427 workers.’’ We went to great lengths to find every case of mesothelioma in this cohort of workers. We found a single case over the entire period of observation, from 1930 through 2012. Egilman et al count a second case based on an article by Lamm and Starr, which was not published in a peer-reviewed journal and provided no information on the single case of mesothelioma that they claimed to have found. We were unable to verify this claim after an exhaustive search of the death certificates of workers in the expanded cohort of Vermont talc workers, as described in our paper. It is simply incorrect to say that we reported two cases of mesothelioma in this cohort, a false claim that Egilman et al repeat at least three times in their letter. All of the calculations in the Egilman et al letter based on two mesothelioma deaths are, therefore, incorrect. It is also incorrect to allege that we stated that the workers in the cohort had no occupational exposure to asbestos. We did not state this, and it is not true: the","PeriodicalId":46545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84605416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agriculture workers have a high risk for exposure to respiratory hazards. Because only a small portion of the overall population is employed in agriculture, respiratory disease in farmers is not a major public health issue. Despite this, the health and well-being of farmers as well as their health risk reduction in their working conditions needs to be examined, especially because a farming environment has been thought to prevent the development of allergies. Respiratory diseases and symptoms are well-recognized occupational problems among farmers. Agricultural workers in all sectors of farming are exposed to various types of airborne toxins and allergens in their work, including organic dust, pesticides, and microbes. Several different types of gases (eg, ammonia, methane, and carbon dioxide) may also be present in their working environments. Inhalation of biological dusts, which are composed of organic material from straw, hay, animals, and microbes, can cause changes in pulmonary function, induce antibody formation and lead to the development of respiratory disease.
