Rasha Aboelhassan: By early detection, we changed expectations and direction of future cancer curves in Egypt
Rasha Aboelhassan posted on LinkedIn:
“For many years, I used to think that my country Egypt is overloaded by population and this is the cause of the high cancer burden and lower resources.
After working through early cancer detection through Egyptian presidential initiatives for cancer, I really changed my thoughts as I lived the time when we detected very early-stage cancer patients every day in the Ministry of Health and Population – Egypt.
By early detection, we changed expectations and direction of future cancer curves in Egypt.
for this achievement, I would thank everyone who worked through presidential initiatives, my friends, and colleagues.
Special thanks for a very special person who I really love from my heart: Egyptian people
Thanks for you
Thanks for your responses to presidential initiatives for early detection of cancer,
without your responses, we would never have achieved.”
