*"Prevention is better than Cure."*
*(By Desiderius Erasmus)*

1st August has been celebrated globally as World Lung Cancer Day. In 2012, Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS) in partnershiping with IASLC and American College of Chest Physicians simultaneously campaign to break the stigma surrounding the disease, educate the public on risk factors and promote early malignancy detections.

Uncontrolled smoking, to***co consumption, toxicated gaseous exposure and air pollution boost up lung cancerous adversities now-a-days. Persistent cough, bloody coughing, chest pain, unexpected weight loss or fatigue symbolise as symptoms for this mighty disease. Over 2.2 millions new cases are diagnosed annually for each year among which 80-90% cases are preventable.

Nicotene cessation and more antioxidant-rich based diet can enhance nourishment, support cellular repair and lower the mutational changing possibility. Even early detection through appropriate screening can improve the chances of successful treatment.

We, Team MBSI, heartfully pray for faster procurement of those patients who are suffering from this along with their families. Be aware, stand together, raise voices in awarenessing this vital context. Let's detect and delete this myth first which says : _"Not every lung cancer patient has ever smoked!"_

*Let's Breathe Hope, Fight With Lung Cancer.*
