| World Cancer Day: "Together it is possible" |
"Together it is possible" is the 2012 theme for World Cancer Day, reinforcing the idea that every person, organization, and government must do their part if we are to successfully reduce premature deaths from cancer and other noncommunicable diseases.Prevention, treatment and improved quality of life for cancer patients are top priorities in the global fight against cancer.
This year’s World Cancer Day campaign focuses on screening and vaccination.
