Lung cancer remains one of the most common and serious types of cancer affecting both men and women. Smoking significantly increases the risk, although non-smokers can also develop the disease. The risk escalates with the duration and quantity of smoking, yet quitting can greatly reduce the likelihood of lung cancer. Korina Pateli-Bell, President of FairLife Lung Cancer Care, emphasizes the organization’s mission to support patients throughout their journey from diagnosis to treatment while raising public awareness of the disease’s causes to promote prevention and early detection.
