    #Cancer is no longer a death sentence. Prevention, early detection and treatment can save millions of lives, yet, many people around the world still lack access. This is why we need #HealthForAll! #WorldCancerDay

        Many cases of #cancer are diagnosed too late, which makes them much harder to treat successfully. We need stronger health systems to ensure early diagnosis and accessible, high-quality care for patients. #HealthForAll #WorldCancerDaypic.twitter.com/Z7GrUfE5kd

        Absolutely. Improving health seeking behavior, access to affordable and effective cancer treatment and palliative care is a challenge in developing countries. Collectively this can be a thing of the past.
