Osak centres personal stories on World Cancer Day

World Cancer Day is a reminder of people, not just statistics, as behind every diagnosis lies a life that changes, a family that is tested and a daily routine that needs support, said Osak’s cancer committee chair Antonis Tryfonos.

Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, Tryfonos underlined the decisive role of the mass media in shaping a well-documented and humane public discourse on cancer.

Without proper information and without an alliance with the media, he said, no substantial change can be established.
