As the sun rises over the city, the hustle and bustle of everyday life resumes. But beneath the surface of daily routines, a silent and deadly threat continues to grow: Lung Cancer

Lung cancer remains one of the deadliest forms of cancer globally, claiming millions of lives each year. 

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), the global cancer burden is expected to soar to over 35 million new cases annually by 2050—a shocking 77% increase from 2022, when 20 million cases were reported. Of these, lung cancer alone is projected to account for 2.5 million cases, or 12.4% of the total cancer burden worldwide. 

Tobacco use continues to be the primary cause, responsible for nearly two-thirds of all lung cancer deaths.
