nearly one in two Canadians will get a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime

[Anonymous]

WINNIPEG — Nearly one in two Canadians are expected to be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, and one in four will die from the disease, a new Canadian Cancer Society report says.



The lifetime cancer risk remains greater among males at 49 percent, while 45 percent of women are expected to be diagnosed.







According to the Canadian Cancer Statistics 2017 report, nearly 90 percent of new cancer cases in Canada will be in people over 50-years-old.



The report also predicts the number of Canadian cancer cases will increase by 35 percent over the next 20 years as the population grows and ages. In Manitoba, the increase is expected to be between 50 and 60 percent.



"This is a sobering report that demonstrates how cancer touches every family in Canada and Manitoba," said Erin Crawford, senior director of public issues and community engagement for the Canadian Cancer Society.



"We need to recognize the challenges that this will impose on Manitoba's health care system as the demand grows for diagnostics, treatment, palliative care and support services."



Crawford said the latest statistics highlight the need for continued strengthening of cancer prevention efforts and early detection.



On a more positive note, the number of new cancer cases per 100,000 people continues to decline, while the number of people surviving the disease is also improving. Nearly 2.5 percent of Canadians — or 810,045 people — are living beyond their cancer diagnosis.



In Manitoba this year, four kinds of cancer will account for half of all cancer cases:



Four kinds of cancer will account for half of the cancer cases in Manitoba this year. They are:

•Lung: 910 new cases this year

•Colorectal: 870

•Breast: 860

•Prostate: 700



Crawford says half of all cancer cases can be prevented through healthy behaviours and policies that protect the public.



"This report shows the importance of taking the steps we can, whether it is having our children vaccinated or reducing the impact of second-hand smoke on patios," she added

That's some sobering numbers. It's a concern for me as  I get older.

That is scary but  Getting checked on regular basis and catching it early could  increase the odds of survival significantly plus they are doing some neat stuff with Stem cells and Genetic Engineering.

Some scary stats for sure. Some cancers show no  symptoms until it's too late though.

We are getting so much better at treating it though.  It's amazing what they can do these days.



My mom had to have her lips practically removed due to cancer.

Acutally with the long summer days and the sunlight we get reflecting off ther snow/ice in winter we get exposed too lots of sun.



Well execpt in the PNW where  Grey and Rainy are the norm for most of the year till spring/summer.



P.S. I liked the 2002  Remake of "The Time Machine"

I cover up completely. I'm not the bear all type. A tan is evidence of sun damage. Two words to consider: cancer screening.
