The divide is the result of concentrating risk factors, preventable disease, suffering, impoverishment from ill health and death among poor populations.
fueled by progress in cutting-edge science and medicine in high-income countries.

In Canada, almost 90% of children with leukemia survive. In the poorest countries only 10%.
Facet 4: Stigma:
Cancer especially in women and children - adds a layer of discrimination onto ethnicity, poverty, and gender.
1/3-1/2 of cancer deaths are avoidable: 2.4-3.7 million deaths, of which 80% are in LIMCs
Prevention and treatment offers potential world savings of $ US 130-940 billion
The costs to close the cancer divide may be less than many fear:
All but 3 of 29 LMIC priority cancer chemo and hormonal agents are off-patent Cost of drug treatment: cervical cancer + HL + ALL(kids) in LMICs / year of incident cases: $US 280 m Pain medication is cheap Prices drop: HepB and HPV vaccines Delivery & financing innovations are underutilized & undeveloped: purchasing fragmented, procurement unstable
Women and mothers in LMICs face many risks through the life cycle Women 15-59, annual deaths

Large and exemplary investment in treatment for women and the health system, yet a low survival rate. By applying a diagonal approach, this can and is being remedied.
