Health Minister responds to concerns surrounding breast cancer screening in NL

  • Summary

  • On Tuesday, we heard from the advocacy group Dense Breasts Canada, as well as NAPE. They expressed their concerns about the province's delay in moving on a reduction in the recommended age for breast cancer screenings from 50 to 40. Premier Andrew Furey said the province was taking 'immediate action,' but NL Health Services said it needed time to ensure resources were in place. Five months later, this change has still not been started. Last week, CBC's Alex Kennedy spoke with John Hogan, the Minister of Health and Community Services of Newfoundland and Labrador.
