How to Prevent Colorectal Cancer in Bangladesh

Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in Bangladesh. The average lives expectancy for colorectal cancer patients is only 5 years. This high mortality rate is due to a lack of early detection and treatment, lack of access to quality care, and high rates of radiation therapy. To prevent colorectal cancer in Bangladesh, we need to do more than just talk about it. We need to act on our knowledge and make sure that everyone has access to the best possible care.
