Mesothelioma is fairly rare. There are about 2,000-3,000 new cases per year in this country. Most people who get mesothelioma are over 65 years old. Men are much more likely than women to get this disease.
Although rare, this is a serious disease. It is often advanced before symptoms appear, so the outlook is not as good as it is for cancers that are found earlier. The average survival time is about 1 to 2 years.
