At least 15 men who were near the World Trade Center (WTC) site, also known as Ground Zero, after the 9/11 attacks have reportedly been diagnosed with breast cancer, according to the New York Post.
Barasch & McGarry, a law firm that represents health cases associated with the September 11, 2001 terror attack, told the news outlet that it currently has over a dozen male clients with breast cancer who developed the condition over the years after the terror strike. Reports state that these men either lived or worked around the WTC when the attack happened.
