Consider a Facebook account with loose privacy settings that reveals that a candidate is a heavysmoker or is 62 years old or is a single father responsible for the daily care of eight children.
She told them she was perfectly healthy, but the surgery was adamant her records showed she was a heavysmoker and suffered from Alzheimer's Disease, a kidney condition and had undergone a hysterectomy and a double hip replacement.
Thus, these breast cancer risk factors are nothing like cigarette smoking as a risk factor for lung cancer, where a current smoker has roughly a 15-fold increased risk compared to that of someone who never smoked, and a heavysmoker might have a 40 or 50-fold increased risk.
