ELEANOR HALL: Back home now, and in Brisbane, another former ABC employee has developed breast cancer, taking the number of reported cases in the cancer cluster to 16.

A year ago the national broadcaster shut down its Brisbane headquarters when experts deemed it was unsafe.

Judy Kennedy, a mother of two young boys, is the latest employee to be diagnosed, and the news has sent more shockwaves and despair through the ABC in Queensland, as Nicole Butler reports from Brisbane.


I think this is number 16 or 17 who have now contracted breast cancer after working at this location.
Although there is no scientific evidence proving that the location is to blame I'm sure there is some connection.
I would love to know what is causing this so we can eliminate it from all workplaces.

Very interesting. From memory, experts didn't actually deem the building unsafe, (as reported in the article) they couldn't find anything actually wrong apart from the number of women developing cancer for no apparent reason. The ABC decided to voluntarily vacate.


I agree, whatever it is it's too much to be a coincidence and I hope whatever caused it is found so it can be eradicated.

The fact that it has a bloody great Antenna on the top of the building that they work in might have something to so with it, but hell the "scientist" have said that it would have no bearing on the employee's...what a load of shite!

Cheers
