Gonna have virtually impossible causation problems. Even the ol' res ipsa approach will fail.

Best bet would probably be a wave of class-actions to muddy the causation arguments that will yield massive damage to the hospitals but only serve to make the attorneys rich while the plaintiffs end up getting a few thousand each and maybe some medical bills written off.

I mean yeah, you're gonna have late night 'mesothelioma' style cottage industry commercials popping up for years, but I don't think this will yield a true sea change.
