Yüksel Ürün, Medical Oncology Professor at Ankara University School of Medicine, shared a post on X about a paper by the GBD 2023 Cancer Collaborators published in The Lancet:
“Cancer deaths keep rising: 10.4M in 2023, and could reach 18.6M by 2050.
Most new cases will hit poorer countries!
Progress is real, yet inequity grows.
Prevention saves lives.
Policy must catch up.”
