Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and
accounted for 7.6 million deaths (around 13% of all deaths) in 2008.
World Cancer Day is marked
on February 4 to raise awareness of cancer and to encourage its prevention,
detection, and treatment. World Cancer Day was founded by the Union for
International Cancer Control (UICC) to support the goals of the World Cancer
Declaration, written in 2008. The primary goal of the World Cancer Day is to
significantly reduce death and illness caused by cancer by 2020
