Lung Cancer kills more people than breast, colon, and prostate cancer combined! However, the rates for lung cancer screening exams is the lowest out of all routine cancer screenings. Less than 6% of eligible people in the U.S have been screened, compared to 70% for breast cancer and 76% for colorectal cancer.
I joined LUNG FORCE to support those in need, to raise awareness about lung cancer, lung cancer screening, lung disease, to raise funds for research, outreach, and early detection initiatives.
Encourage your friends and family to talk with their healthcare provider to see if they qualify for lung cancer screening. Anyone with lungs can get lung cancer. 10-20% of people who develop lung cancer have never smoked.
I would greatly appreciate your support, either by joining my team (you can attend the event in-person or virtual), making a donation, or simply spreading the word.
Thank you and go Get Screened!
