World Cancer Day was observed across the globe today to create awareness and educate people about this deadly disease and how to fight it through screening and early detection.
This year, the Union for International Cancer Control, which organises World Cancer Day, is launching a new 3-year campaign under the name of : “I Am and I Will.” It calls for a personal commitment to help reduce the global burden of cancer.
Cancer is a generic term for a large group of diseases characterized by the growth of abnormal cells beyond their usual boundaries that can then invade adjoining parts of the body and/or spread to other organs.
