National Cancer Institute predicts a drop in early deaths from the disease in the coming years – News

Today (4) is World Cancer Day. This year alone, about 700,000 Brazilians should be diagnosed with the disease. But the National Cancer Institute has good news. Early deaths caused by the disease should fall by 12% for men and 4.6% for women. For an oncologist consulted by the report, anti-smoking campaigns, vaccination against HPV and early diagnosis impact this prediction.
