Don't forget the cancer. Unfortunately, we've all witnessed it on a personal level.
preCISION will be massive if it comes to fruition in the coming years.
IMO will be speeded up by the funds made from Covid19.
Taken from the Cancer Research website:
There are around 165,000 cancer deaths in the UK every year, that's around 450 every day (2015-2017).
Cancer accounts for more than a quarter (28%) of all deaths in the UK (2017).
In females in the UK, there were around 77,700 cancer deaths in 2017.
In males in the UK, there were around 88,900 cancer deaths in 2017.
Every four minutes someone in the UK dies from cancer.
Since the early 1970s, mortality rates for all cancers combined have decreased by a sixth (17%) in the UK. Rates in females have decreased by around a tenth (11%), and rates in males have decreased by a quarter (25%).
Over the last decade, mortality rates for all cancers combined have decreased by around a tenth (9%) in the UK. Rates in females have decreased by around a tenth (9%), and rates in males have decreased by more than a tenth (12%).
An estimated 832,000 cancer deaths had been avoided in the UK by 2016 because mortality rates dropped from their peak levels in the 1980s.
Mortality rates for all cancers combined are projected to fall by 15% in the UK between 2014 and 2035, to 280 deaths per 100,000 people by 2035.
Cancer causes more than one in four of all deaths in the UK (2017).
UK mortality is ranked lower than two-thirds of Europe.
UK mortality is ranked higher than two-thirds of the world.
