I had a cousin that had lung cancer’07, found in both lungs, he never smoked, dont have a basement, but hes pratically a WFH/stay at home person all the time, i always suspected it was either the chemicals they used to clean, and radon in that house, but never confirmed it, since there isnt a BASEMENT to begin with and i dont live close to them to ask.
