Long Answer
1. If shuttles are not placed properly, they can fly off the machine and injure a weaver, known as a “flying shuttle.” Shuttles can carry viruses and bacteria from the mouths of other weavers who use their lips to thread the loom—the “kiss of death.” The unventilated, low-quality air inside the sealed rooms of the factories creates an environment in which workers constantly inhale microscopic fibers from the textiles, causing a persistent cough.
