Yes this is a great initiative of educating the Public about Cancer ,But One factor that should be emphasized is the role of cigarette and beedi smoking not only on the health and life span of smokers curtailing their life- span by at least ten years by tobacco-smoking related fatal disease such as cancer, heart attacks, asthma, kidney diseases, diabetes etc, cigarette and beedi smoke blown out to the air pollutes the air and the non-smokers inhaling the tobacco-smoke-polluted air are ten times more at risk of having fatal diseases mentioned above too! The only beneficiaries of tobacco industry are the business houses and medical community, private hospitals and medicine making companies selling expensive drugs to treat fatal diseases mentioned above and it is puzzling why WHO itself has NOT recommended production , sale and distribution of cigarettes, beedis, cigars,etc considering the enormous catastrophic harm being done by tobacco products on human lives and health too
