LUNG CANCER HIGH FOR YOUNG GREEKS

Young Greeks under the age of 45 have the highest rate of lung cancer among all European Union countries, according to new research data.

Constantinos Syrigos, a professor at Athens Medical School, said this high incidence is linked to the fact that a majority of Greek smokers start before they are 18.

Latest statistics show that 7,000 people die of lung cancer in Greece every year and, of these deaths, 90 percent were smokers.
