Post# of 148316
2010-2020 number of new cancers patients went up...
- about 24% in men , more than 1mill cases a year
- about 21% in women , more than 900,000 a year.
In men most common --Melanoma, Prostate, kidney , liver , bladder cancer.
In women most common-- lungs , breast , uterine and thyroid ...
" Over the next decade we expect cancer incidence rate to stay about the same , but number of new cancers cases to go up "
Because people with cancers live longer now , the number of cancer survivors expect to go from about 11,7 mil in 2007 , to about 18 mill in 2020.
Thank you Zuess , sad and interesting read ....
