Yvonne Alexander on Colon Cancer

Following a successful awareness campaign for Cervical Cancer in January, the Dominica Cancer Society (DCS) is gearing up to raise awareness for Colon Cancer in March.

The DCS is using months of the year to sensitize citizens on various types of Cancer, and President of the Society Yvonne Alexander says Community Awareness sessions may be in order.

While Colon Cancer is not a prevalent Cancer in Dominica, Alexander stressed the need for screening.

Meantime, Alexander reported a successful Cervical Cancer screening drive in January.
