More countries act against exposure to radon and associated cancer risks
More countries than ever before are protecting health from radon exposure, but many still need to take action to mitigate the impacts of this carcinogenic radioactive gas, according to a new WHO survey.
So far, a total of 56 countries over a quarter of all WHO Member States responded to the WHO radon survey. The vast majority have set national reference levels for homes and workplaces, 44 per cent have developed national radon action plans, and 39 per cent have included it in codes for new buildings.
Globally, in 2019, residential radon exposure alone was estimated to have caused 84,000 deaths by lung cancer; in some countries, it is among the leading causes of lung cancer.

Immunoproteins refer to blood proteins that have a major role in the proper functioning of the immune system. These proteins have immunological activity against pathogenic organisms and display an abnormal increase in blood concentration. These proteins act as a potential indicator of disease diagnosis during an unhealthy state. The immunoproteins form an integrated body system in cells, tissues or organs that neutralize the harmful effects of antigens and also help in the diagnosis of various chronic diseases that include infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and oncological conditions.
