Cancer Deaths Drop

Cancer is a disease in which some of the body’s cells grow uncontrollably and sometimes spread to other physical parts.
From its peak in 1991, the combined cancer death rate fell 33 percent by 2020, the most recent year for which data were available. This reduction in deaths from cancer has averted an estimated 3.8 million deaths 2.6 million in men and 1.2 million in women.
