"For lung cancer, for example, there are individuals who live in poor air quality for years, and this becomes a risk factor for developing lung cancer. But there are other individuals who must have several other puzzles (risk factors), such as poor air quality, an unhealthy lifestyle, then they are smokers or perhaps passive smokers,""

"Perhaps there are some cases of lung cancer that occur due to a single risk factor, but in some cases, lung cancer is not caused by just one risk factor. The development of lung cancer is the result of a combination of several risk factors."

Smoking as the Main Factor!

"Smoking is a major risk factor for lung cancer. Cigarette smoke contains carcinogenic substances that can damage the DNA of lung cells and trigger the development of lung cancer. Both active and passive smokers are exposed to this risk."

"Kanker paru ini adalah perubahan genetik pada saluran nafas, yang artinya ada paparan langsung dari zat langsung yang sifatnya karsinogenik ke saluran nafas. Zat karsinogenik yang paling erat kaitannya langsung adalah asap rokok, baik dia perokok aktif atau pasif," translates to: " Lung cancer is a genetic change in the respiratory tract, which means there is direct exposure to a substance that is carcinogenic to the respiratory tract. The carcinogenic substance most directly related is cigarette smoke, whether from an active or passive smoker,"
