• ... that in 2019 Paul Cosford presented findings that lung cancer (pictured) in people who have never smoked is increasing and is more common than many people think? Source: The authors include Prof Paul Cosford...the absolute numbers and rates of lung cancers in never-smokers are increasing..People will find these numbers very surprising. They rarely think of lung cancer as a non-smoker’s disease. They’re so focused on smoking as the main risk factor that we forget that there are quite a few causes of lung cancer that affect non-smokers." [1][2]
