Although exposure toasbestos is the primary cause of mesothelioma, a slow-developing cancer,researchers believe that infection by the SV40 virus is a contributing cause,since in the United States60 percent of tissue samples from mesotheliomas, but none from healthy tissue,contain SV40. SV40 is a monkey virus; however, in 1960 some polio vaccine wascontaminated with the virus. Researchers hypothesize that this vaccine was thesource of the virus found in mesotheliomas decades later. Which of thefollowing, if true, most strongly supports the researchers’ hypothesis? A. SV40is widely used as a research tool in cancer laboratories. B. Changesin the technique of manufacturing the vaccine now prevent contamination withSV40. C. Recentlydiscovered samples of the vaccine dating from 1960 still show traced of thevirus. D. Ina small percentage of cases of mesothelioma, there is no history of exposure toasbestos. E. InFinland,where the polio vaccine was never contaminated, samples from mesotheliomas donot contain SV40
