Here are some facts about breast cancer: In 2022, the Mayo Clinic reported that “breast cancer was the leading cause of cancer death among Black women, according to a new report by the American Cancer Society. Black women are now 41% more likely to die from breast cancer than white women despite a lower risk of being diagnosed with the disease. This is partly because Black women are more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer at a later stage when it is harder to treat, and they are less frequently undergoing screening mammography. However, Black women have lower survival rates for every stage of breast cancer diagnosis. Many complex factors contribute to this gap in care outcomes ― all of which are fueled by systemic racism that limits access to high-quality cancer treatment.” Resources: Johnson & Johnson Health Equity: https://www.jnj.com/global-health-equity My Health Can’t Wait (MHCW): https://www.myhealthcantwait.com Please support Shanti Das' non-profit: https://www.silencetheshame.com
