WHO warns that 92% of people will be affected by cancer worldwide by 2050
The World Health Organization has announced that the number of new cancer cases could rise to 35 million annually worldwide by 2026, up from 20.6 million in 2024. This increase is due to disparities in detection and treatment between countries. The report indicates that 92% of the population will be affected by the disease, with significant differences in survival rates and diagnoses between wealthy and impoverished nations; for example, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer reaches 85% in rich countries compared to 40% in poorer ones. The report also shows that smoking remains the leading cause of cancer, with a noticeable decline in efforts to reduce it. Additionally, physical inactivity and obesity are on the rise, threatening to increase the burden of cancer treatment over the next two decades.
