Hello, for practice question 11.1, under the examples of two sub-types of latent claims, I found 'asbestos' and 'mesothelioma' - are almost the same. Would these two terms in fact could be belong to both sub-types? or reasons that they can't? Thanks!
Yes, you could use both examples for each sub-type. Mesothelioma is the 'worst' of the asbestos-related diseases, and so is sometimes worthy of being thought of separately - just as asbestos-related diseases are the 'worst' of the health hazards and so are often in a category of their own. The point of 11.1 is that meso is particularly long-tailed whereas asbestos-related diseases were all unexpected at some point.
