How deadly is breast cancer?
Breast cancer is a serious and potentially deadly disease.
It is the most common cancer among women worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer death in women.
According to the American Cancer Society, in 20220, an estimated 276,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed in women in the United States, and about 42,170 women in the U.S. died from breast cancer.
However, the death rate from breast cancer has been declining since 1989, with a 40% decrease in the breast cancer death rate from 1989 to 2017, largely due to improvements in early detection and treatment.
The risk of dying from breast cancer varies depending on factors such as age, stage at diagnosis, and the type of breast cancer.
Early detection and treatment can significantly improve the chances of survival.
