Ah-Leen Rayner: Breast Cancer Foundation CEO says political leadership needs to act on breast cancer

from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB

A challenge has been laid down for political parties to act on breast cancer.  The Breast Cancer Foundation is releasing election scorecards which shows that all parties want to raise the free mammogram age to 74.  Only the Greens, New Zealand First, and TOP would lower the minimum age for higher risk women.  Chief Executive Ah-Leen Rayner says there's a willingness to do more, but responses were light on detail or didn't go far enough.  She says breast cancer is a human issue not a political issue, but needs political leadership to address it.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
