Senegal: breast cancer screening campaign | TV5MONDE

For Senegalese women, getting a mammogram is far from a habit. The act costs between 40,000 CFA francs and 60,000 CFA francs. The “Breast Cancer Senegal” association invited women to a free screening. Despite the introduction of free chemotherapy in Senegal three years ago, 70% of women with breast cancer die in the country. Blame it on too late screening according to specialists.
