Dar es Salaam. Health experts have reiterated the importance of adopting preventive measures against lung cancer, which remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality globally.
International health statistics indicate that lung cancer accounts for nearly one in every five cancer deaths worldwide.
Despite the disease being largely preventable, experts warn that the use of tobacco products, including cigarettes and shisha, remains the primary driver of rising case numbers, alongside ambient air pollution, exposure to industrial chemicals, radon gas, and hazardous workplace environments.
