With October coming to an end, breast cancer awareness has been at its peak around the country with various initiatives, campaigns and charities to support cancer fighters and survivors.
Although breast cancer is the most prevalent in the country, it can also be one of the most prevented, if early detection is taken seriously. Thus, awareness is vital, particularly when a layer of stigmatism and embarrassment continues to subsist.
According to the Health Authority of Abu Dhabi (HAAD), of all the health cases, breast cancer comes at a whopping 22 per cent. Death rates have however declined from 8.7 per 100,0000 women in 2009 to 5 per 100,000 in 2014.
Dr Norbert Wilhelm Dreier, head of the department of oncology and hematology at Burjeel Hospital, highlighted that breast cancer is nevertheless on the rise in the country.
