Priorities for #Cancer #prevention in the next years : reduce cancer deaths, improve a smoother translation from research into prevention action policy, focus on achievable goals and cancer whose pronostic didn't improve in a long time. @IARCWHO inauguration's ceremony.

Women make up 70% of the health workforce globally, incl. 90% of all nurses, BUT 👩🏻‍⚕️ They occupy only 25% of global health leadership roles 👩🏻‍⚕️ On average earn 25% less than their male colleagues We must address the root causes of disparities in women’s and girl’s health

New video📺 to mark #RareDiseaseDay! Rare #cancers are #cancer types with <6 newly diagnosed cases per 100 000 people per year. While individually rare, these cancer types combine to account for ~25–30% of all cancer diagnoses & 25% of cancer deaths. youtu.be/B43zEdjLaC4

The overlooked intergenerational impact of cancer deaths in women @IARCWHO @Flo_research @OphiraG @raymailhotvega @BendaKithaka

Today is #WorldCancerDay Each year, 1 million children lose their mother to #cancer. 💔 Cancer can trigger generational hardship & perpetuate cycles of poverty. #CloseTheCareGap in cancer ⬇️

Let’s make a deal: America will adopt the metric system, Europe will adopt 10,000,000.00-style number formatting

Over 1 million children became maternal orphans, in 2020 alone. Read the new study on the intergenerational consequences of maternal cancer mortality, presented at the #WorldCancerCongress. #WCC2022 nature.com/articles/s4159…

3/3 Q and challenge to all !! What other critical measures of the cancer burden and cancer's impact should the global cancer research community be highlighting and quantifying?

Today on #WorldChildrensDay, @valmacsee and I would like to highlight the issue of maternal orphans due to cancer deaths. This issue is important and often overlooked. Read our new study @NatureMedicine rdcu.be/cZ25H

According to 2020 estimates from 185 countries, Asia and Africa have the most maternal #orphans due to #cancer, with #breastcancer and #cervicalcancer responsible for almost half of maternal cancers. #WorldChildrensDay @valmacsee @Flo_research @IARCWHO nature.com/articles/s4159…

On @UNICEF #WorldChildrensDay @IARCWHO estimates there were 7 million maternal orphans due to cancer and 1 million children newly maternally orphaned in 2020. Many of the contributing ♀️ cancer deaths are preventable. rdcu.be/cZ25H

A new study provides the first estimates of the global number of maternal orphans due to cancer. "In 2020, 4.4 million women died from cancer worldwide. We estimated that these deaths led to 1.04 million new orphans." - @valmacsee, @IARCWHO. #WCC2022
