A 45-year-old man comes to the clinic concerned about his recent exposure to radon. He heard from his co-worker that radon exposure can cause lung cancer. He brings in a study concerning the risks of radon exposure. In the study, there were 300 patients exposed to radon, and 18 developed lung cancer over a 10-year period. To compare, there were 500 patients without radon exposure and 11 developed lung cancer over the same 10-year period. If we know that 0.05% of the population has been exposed to radon, what is the attributable risk percent for developing lung cancer over a 10 year period after radon exposure?
