February 4 is World Cancer Day.
World Cancer Day aims to prevent millions of deaths each year by raising awareness and education about cancer, and pressing governments and individuals across the world to take action against the disease.
This year World Cancer Day's theme is “Closing the care gap: Everyone deserves access to cancer care” ․
In the entire world, including Armenia, the problem of cancer is one of the urgent public health challenges. 10 million people die from cancer every year. Nevertheless, at least one third of common cancers are preventable.
