World Cancer Day aims to save millions of preventable deaths each year by raising awareness and education about cancer, and pressing governments and individuals across the world to take action against the disease. <strong>Union for International Cancer Control<\/strong> UICC wants people to think about what the society and individuals can do to fight cancer.<strong> 14 million<\/strong> cases of cancer are registered every year and unfortunately also <strong>8 ,8 million<\/strong> deaths by cancer <strong>every year<\/strong>. Everyone must have possibilities to get quality cure against cancer regardless where they live. Unfortunately there are many countries with underfunded health care system and many people do not have\u00a0health insurance, therefore have no access to early detection and life-saving treatment. The Day Against Cancer is a good opportunity to <strong>raise cancer awareness through media coverage<\/strong> to influence people attitudes and attitudes towards their health. It wants to<strong> involve people<\/strong> in charge of the country&#8217;s <strong>health policy<\/strong> and first-rate medical professionals who create the best opportunities for<strong> early detection<\/strong> and <strong>modern treatment<\/strong> of cancer in Estonia.<\/p>\n<p>On this day, the <strong>Estonian Cancer Society<\/strong> draws societies&#8217; attention to the fact that the<strong> Estonia needs a comprehensive and systematic disease prevention program<\/strong>, centered on the human being. It is<strong> important to raise people&#8217;s awareness<\/strong> by amplifying the message that <strong>cancer can be prevented or detected early<\/strong>, which would significantly reduce the number of cancer deaths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can I personally do:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Healthy choices in lifestyle have to be made to reduce the risk of cancer<\/li>\n<li>Quit smoking<\/li>\n<li>Reduce alcohol consumption<\/li>\n<li>Do regular sports<\/li>\n<li>Eat healthy<\/li>\n<li>Be careful with taking the sun<\/li>\n<li>Be aware of the environmental factors that affect us<\/li>\n<li>Know the symptoms of cancer and the possible danger signals<\/li>\n<li>Vaccinate yourself<\/li>\n<li>Cancer patient families, friends, colleagues and local area network assist emotionally and psychosocially<\/li>\n<li>As a patient, take an active part in the treatment process where professionals explain the different treatment options and risks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What can we do in our society:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Create healthy environments in our cities, schools and workplaces, sports and entertainment<\/li>\n<li>Promote activities that support a healthy lifestyle<\/li>\n<li>One third of cancers can be prevented by healthy eating and physical activity<\/li>\n<li>Improve people&#8217;s access to early detection, screening, and timely diagnosis of cancer, contribute to maintaining the quality of life of patients<\/li>\n<li>Create national vaccination programs<\/li>\n<li>Employers can create a work culture where people with cancer diagnosis know they are expected to return to work and are fully supported in adaptation<\/li>\n<li>Increase knowledge of the nature of cancer disease to reduce stigma and myths due to diagnosis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additional information: www.cancer.ee; www.worldcancerday.org; www.uicc.org<\/p>\n<p>In Estonia, cancer is the second leading cause of death after circulatory diseases.
