February 11, 2014: Cancer is a leading cause of death, which accounts for 7.6 million deaths, worldwide. Hence, each year the world celebrates World Cancer Day on February 04, 2014 to raise awareness about the disease. On that day, Heartfile shared a sobering reminder about the devastation cancer causes at the individual and systems level, with the concluding punch line “Let us at least recognize the magnitude of the problem and pay tribute to those braving cancers and others serious conditions on World Cancer Day while we continue with our struggle to fight health systems challenges and raise awareness about prevention”. The post is available on our Heartfile eForum and was also cross posted on the Huffington Post. Your comments are welcome through the eForum discussion portal.
