The UK Government has been urged to investigate the long-term health effects of toxic smoke exposure on firefighters who battled the 2017 Grenfell Tower blaze. With many firefighters now suffering from chronic health conditions, the Government must 'seriously look' at the impact of the fire, according to a minister. The inquiry comes as concerns grow over the potential link between toxic smoke inhalation and firefighters' health, with keywords like 'occupational health' and 'toxic exposure' becoming increasingly relevant. The Government's investigation aims to provide support and justice for affected firefighters, highlighting the importance of 'firefighter safety' and 'health risks' in emergency response situations.
