Breathing #radon over time increases your risk of #lungcancer. Radon is the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer in the US. Nationally, the EPA estimates that about 21,000 people die each year from radon-related lung cancer. Only smoking causes more lung cancer deaths. #EPA #molcc

People of color who are diagnosed with #lungcancer face worse outcomes compared to white Americans because they are less likely to be diagnosed early, less likely to receive surgical treatment, and more likely to not receive any treatment. bit.ly/3YKnz1f #molcc
