About MesoWatch
Independent mesothelioma information for patients and families.
Our Mission
MesoWatch exists to provide clear, accurate, source-cited information about mesothelioma to patients, families, and caregivers navigating a hard diagnosis.
MesoWatch is an independent mesothelioma advocacy and journalism organization. We publish medically grounded, source-cited reporting, and we connect people facing a diagnosis with vetted asbestos litigators: firms with documented trial records and settlements verified through court filings. Those firms sponsor MesoWatch, and that sponsorship funds our free reporting. We disclose it plainly on every attorney page, and it never shapes what we cover.
Why MesoWatch?
Search for mesothelioma information online, and you'll find countless sites that look like medical resources but read like advertising. The sourcing is often thin, and the reader can't tell who shaped the page or why.
MesoWatch takes a different approach. We focus on:
- Medical accuracy: Our content is based on peer-reviewed research, government health data, and established medical guidelines.
- Editorial independence: Sponsoring firms fund our reporting, but they never review, approve, or influence it.
- Transparency: We cite our sources and clearly distinguish between established facts and emerging research.
- Patient focus: We report what patients and families actually need to know, for the reader first.
Our Content Standards
All MesoWatch content follows these principles:
- Information is sourced from peer-reviewed journals, government agencies (NIH, CDC, NCI), and established medical organizations
- Content is checked for accuracy against its cited sources
- Statistics include source citations
- We clearly label when information is preliminary or based on limited research
- Content is regularly updated as new research emerges
