Prevention and Screening Clinical Services with the TBRHSC has launched a new campaign, Cancer Doesn’t Stop for COVID-19, encouraging people to get routinely screened for breast, cervical, and colon cancer.
“We can’t underestimate the importance of cancer screening,” said Tarja Heiskanen, manager of Screening and Assessment Services at TBRHSC.”
“Routine screening can find certain types of cancer earlier, before you have any symptoms. Detecting cancer early means that there is an even better chance of treating it successfully. As an example, colon cancer is 90 per cent curable if found at an early stage.”
