9/11 first responders face a higher risk for soft tissue & connective tissue cancers
Sarcoma is a rare form of cancer that develops in the body's connective tissues. A recent study shows that the debris and toxic cloud of the 9/11 attacks includes chemicals like cadmium, which has been linked to various health issues, including soft and connective tissue cancer. Sarcoma may take years after exposure to develop.
9/11 VCF payout for soft tissue & and connective tissue cancers
The compensation you might receive for a 9/11-related connective tissue cancer is determined by a formula that considers your non-economic losses (like pain and suffering), economic losses (lost wages and medical bills), and any money you've already gotten from other sources.
If you were in the zone affected by the 9/11 attacks and later developed soft and connective tissue cancer, you could be eligible for compensation from the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund. While the average payout is around $250,000, your specific claim could be higher depending on the severity of your illness.
