๐Ÿ”ฌ Screening improves cancer outcomes, but uptake varies widely. Cervical screening ranges from 70โ€“80% in some countries to below 50% in others. Access alone is not enough. Awareness and participation are major bottlenecks. ow.ly/5nWb50Z19lR

Cancerโ€™s age profile is shifting. In many countries, diagnoses before 50 are rising as fast as, or faster than, those among older groups. For insurers, this means longer survivorship, prolonged treatment and evolving morbidity risk. Learn more: ow.ly/nUTu50YsIRY
