Cancer touches all of us:

Each year there are:
1.25 million diagnoses & half million deaths per year
that's 1500 per day (1 every minute) !

['Cancer Facts & Figures' Am Canc Soc 1995]

Cancer is projected to surpass heart disease in a few years

['Cancer at a Crossroads' Natl Cancer Advis Bd 9/94] 
            diagnoses(000)  deaths(000)  survival
lung           170            157            7%
colon          100             48           52
breast         183             46           75
prostate       244             40           83

Smoking accounts for 30% of all cancer deaths - responsible for 87% of lung cancers plus an effect on others. Risks of dying by lung cancer are 22 times higher for male smokers than for people who have never smoked.   National Cancer Inst Statistics
