Dégi László Csaba: Ten Years from Now Cancer Will Become the Leading Cause of Death
Dégi László Csaba, President at European Cancer Organisation, shared on LinkedIn:
“From ECO President | A New Budget – A New Reality
It’s not that there is less money to spend. The proposed MFF is almost twice the size of the current one. But health – and within it, cancer – has been folded into a broader ‘competitiveness fund’, just one of many competing priorities. Not when every minute, five people in Europe are diagnosed with this disease.
Not when ten years from now, by all accounts, cancer will become the leading cause of death. Initial calculations I’ve seen suggest that for every euro invested in the Plan, we see €15 in savings. Getting more countries to implement effective screening programmes, for example, not only saves lives, it saves public money.
