We all know how damaging is cancer in our society.
Going back to statistics, in high HDI countries, (human
development index) cancer mortality for males is 132 per 100,000
compared to 87 in low HDI countries, while for females it is fixed at
86-87 per 100,000 for both high and low HDI countries..
Ie.
if a male migrates from India or other low HDI country to a developed
country, he is at 57 % higher risk of contracting cancer, while it does
not make any difference in females.
Whether
it is low awareness, misinformed craze for a materialistic life or a
care-free attitude, such cases abound in our society !
Having to live in constant fear is actually a curse !!
And
finally it is the greatest disservice you can do to your future
generations, make them lose their unique culturally rich identity and
incapacitate them for generations !!
What a shame !!
