Discussing a ban and imposing restrictions in some jurisdictions is not what I would describe as “banned by society” especially when the deleterious health effects affect everyone exposed regardless of jurisdiction.

Also one jurisdiction banning something doesn’t mean it just isn’t available. I can go on eBay right now and buy asbestos brake pads even though they’re technically getting phased out in my country. Airplanes the world over continue to use leaded gas and plastic bottles are available (almost) everywhere. That doesn’t seem very “banned by society” to me.
