Take lung cancer for example: Britain's lung cancer figures are the highest in the world. and rising. Ninety people die every day. 33.000 in 1969. Almost a11 these deaths can be attributed directly to tobacco smoking. The prospects of a cure for 1 ung cancer are. a t present , remote , and i t is impossìble to estìmate when. ìf ever. someone will fìnd one.
