11.01.2022 November is #LungCancerAwarenessMonth. Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer deaths in Australia. While prevention and #quittingsmoking are essential tools in the fight against this disease, did you know that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 10 men who are diagnosed with lung cancer have no history of smoking? It's time to destigmatise lung cancer, focus on supporting research and encourage early diagnosis.
