• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: When we talk about cervical cancer screening services to all women and issuance of HPV to boys and girls by the national Government, we are only introducing awareness and early treatment of the concerned cells before they become cancerous. I support screening which, in the spirit of the Mover of the Motion, should be done early so that we detect the cell changes in the body and treat them immediately and successfully before they develop to cancer. This will help to save our girls and women and achieve a higher survival rate of those affected. view

• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Cancer is very expensive for people in rural areas, who live from hand to mouth. The expense the person is supposed to incur is the same as that of those who have means. So, when we support screening, we are talking about saving our people who have little resources. We will be saving lives. If cancer is detected early, there is a better chance of survival of the affected. view

• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: The drugs that we use to treat cancer, even in our Government hospitals, are worrying. Therefore, if screening can be done in stages one and two – cancer is treatable at these stages - we will save on the money that we allocate to hospitals. view
