While smoking causes 90 per cent of lung cancer, there may be an odourless, colourless gas lingering around people’s homes that can also cause the disease.
“There’s another cause that people don’t know about,” Daisy Dowhy, resource co-ordinator with Central Plains Cancer Care Services, said.
That other cause is radon.
