I had a granddad who died of lung cancer, having never smoked in his life. It’s almost impossible to figure out what causes what.

Most cancers are simply chance events. DNA replication is not 100% error free, and with age, the errors in replication in the wrong places increase. The rest are due to other factors.

I learned in nursing school way back when that radon gas causes more lung cancer than cigarettes
