Grateful that you have taken a science- based leadership role. Health Canada and PHAC should consider adopting your guidelines instead of those from CTFPHC | GECSSP that exclude current evidence
YES! IT IS ABOUT TIME! THANK YOU Canadian Cancer Society for listening to science and for advocating for better breast screening guidelines! Health Canada and PHAC, the current guidelines from CTFPHC | GECSSP exclude current evidence and people are dying as a result! #40not50
Thank you to Canadian Cancer Society for this evidence based recommendation. I wish this had happened early enough to save me delayed diagnosis but I’m glad young women of the future should have more access to screening.
USPSTF Breast Cancer Screening Guidelines Do Not Go Far Enough, editorial from DrWendieBerg , DBI's Chief Scientific Advisor: jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao…
Lead author on a recent study, Jean Seely, MD, is seeing that breast cancer rates are increasing in women as young as their 20's.
'But what really surprised me was the extent of the increase.'

Cdn breast screening guideline update due this spring. Let's do the right thing 🇨🇦. If we ignore rising incidence, racial disparities, higher rates of advanced cancers in provinces that don't screen at 40, & risks to women w dense breasts lives will be lost. Mark Holland
It's not just breast screening. Warnings from specialists in prostate, lung, colorectal, postpartum depression, liver, etc about highly flawed CTFPHC | GECSSP whose guidelines are costing Cdn lives. Thanks Marina von Stackelberg Katie Telford Dr. Stephen Ellis Dan Albas MP

Thank you Shiela Appavoo MD for speaking up for Cdns wellbeing. “CTFPHC | GECSSP consistently overlooks diversity, disregarding the unique healthcare needs of specific demographic groups.”
Why does CTFPHC | GECSSP need to be reformed, Mark Holland? Because Deveryn Ross needed our medical system to do better. #cdnpoli Read it here 👇

A pause was requested and granted because CTFPHC | GECSSP interfered w the scientific process and dictated to the evidence review team that antiquated studies be used. Nothing changed. Why did the USA focus on studies after 2016 and we’re stuck in the 60s? Mark Holland #cdnpoli
Watch this and you will understand why White Coat Black Art has been following this issue for years.
