Cancer

Congratulations to Kylie.

Ignore a lot of the hype and terror, and look at the statistics on the UK National Statistics web site, which give honest, unbiased survival rates for all forms of cancer.

1. Five year survival rates are getting better for all cancers

2. The five year survival rate for testicular cancer is 97%

3. For breast cancer, the five year survival rate is 80%, with the best survival rate of 87% for women in their fifties.

4. Lung cancer five year survival rates are less than 10%. So don’t ever ever smoke!

It is very interesting data and is not given the publication it needs.
