The American Cancer Society estimates that forty-three thousand two hundred and fifty (43,250) women and five hundred and thirty men (530) men will die of breast cancer this year alone, and the risk rate is also very high.
Hematologist and Oncologist, Dr. Gilian Wharfe is calling for free accessibility to treatment for patients in Jamaica.
She says it is significant to recognize the impact of the disease and treatment on individuals.
