全民預防癌症一 愛的篩查

研究顯示，於指定羣組進行癌症篩查，能有效及早偵測某幾類癌症，以提高治療成效、減低發病及死亡率。

可惜新冠肺炎疫情降低了大眾接受健康檢查的意欲。根據香港防癌會調查發現，癌症篩查率在疫情期間大幅下跌。

因此，香港醫學專科學院年青院士分會希望透過短片，推廣癌症篩查。

Cancer is a one of the leading cause of death in Hong Kong. Screening programmes for certain types of cancers can help detect the cancer early and facilitate timely and effective treatment.

However, The COVID-19 pandemic has severely interfered with habits of getting screened for cancer. A survey by the Hong Kong anti-cancer society found that the screening rate for four types of the disease had dropped significantly compared with pre-pandemic period.
