Cameroon promotes early breast cancer diagnosis and treatment during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Cameroon is promoting early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, particularly in remote areas. With around 60% of over 7,000 diagnosed women this year having died due to late treatment, the focus is on education and support. The World Health Organization's October theme emphasizes that no one should face breast cancer alone. The government has equipped hospitals for effective diagnosis, and humanitarian groups are reaching out to encourage awareness and support.
