Hey everyone, my dad says that you can get lung infection and eventually lung cancer at 5 degrees Celsius(or 38 degrees Farhenheit)*without a coat on*. Is this true??

In California everything causes lung cancer.

Cancer is a genetic mutation, it's not caused by temperature that I know of.

Yes, it's true. That's why all the Eskimos are dead.

Getting sick because of low temperatures is an old wives' tale that has been debunked many, many times. Get with the 20th century, man.

Yea that's total BS. I've been outside in 20º- without a coat on playing in the snow, and I'm perfectly fine. I was sick for a few days, but that's all

Well I guess you're more likely to get pneumona at cooler temp so that bit's true. And if you have a lung infection you might increase your risk of cancer due to more cell division during tissue repair at the site of infection, but that's drawing a long bow.
