Breast Cancer Awareness Much Needed in India - Shocking Results and Celebrities Initiatives.
Breast cancer in India is now on its hype and we could witness more and more number of patients being diagnosed with breast cancer. I came across some stats on the same lately and the numbers shocked me. I would be discussing these stats in detail and explain how influencers around the world are taking efforts to bring awareness of breast cancer among women.
Younger age group are more prone to Breast Cancer
The horizontal line at the bottom represents age groups from 20-30, 30-40 and so on. While the verticle line on Y-axis represents numbers in percentage. The red and blue bars represent the present and 25 years back data.
If we look at the graph carefully, 25 years back 2% of the women who suffered from breast cancer fell in the 20 to 30 years age group when compared to present which is 4%. Now if you look at the next age group which is 30-40, there has been a huge increase in BC patients from 7% to 16%. This clearly shows that the increasing number of patients are falling in the age group of 25 to 40 which is a big reason to worry. This is why breast cancer awareness is much needed among women.
Bollywood celebrities are best influencers in India and they are doing their part to bring up awareness of breast cancer among Indian women.
Divya Khosla Kumar was seen in a video some time ago making women aware of breast cancer.
Sonali Kulkarni was also seen inaugurating a Breast Cancer Awareness Program in Mumbai.
The well known Katrina Kaif also seen in the felicitation ceremony of Teal and Pink awareness Program for Cervical and Breast Cancer which was organized by CPAA in Mumbai.
Well, the queen of sensational serials, Ekta Kapoor, has also thought to dive in the Breast Awareness program. Also, it is worth mentioning that her efforts are very unique. She has added an extra tab of "Initiatives" on her official Alt Balaji website, which shows how to prevent Breast Cancer and other things related to it.
