@BastienLaurent@squarebracket Movember's $30M is a drop in that ocean but highly effective against Prostate cancers. One battle won. -
@ALL_CAPS@squarebracket Where did you get that number? The awareness it generates is invaluable and would be a great help to pan cancer -
@BastienLaurent@squarebracket I think the total global Movember fundraising was $30M last year. -
@ALL_CAPS@squarebracket that's a lot. pancreatic cancer doesn't get a lot of money. it's not even listed on the national cancer center site
