Cancer Disease
Cancer is one of the rapidly spreading diseases in Pakistan. Pakistan has the highest number of cases of breast and oral cancer. According to a recent report, nearly 60% of cases were reported amongst women in the shape of breast cancer. In the meanwhile, most men were reported to be affected by oral cancer. Most of the men who were diagnosed were regular tobacco consumers. Furthermore, each year around 148000 cases are being reported in Pakistan, but still, the patients are facing problems in the shape of lack of screening facilities. It is a gentle request to the government of Pakistan to take strong action on this issue.
