End of preventive medicine at the age of 70


<cs-ads type="dfp" class="banner" id="Mobile_1" data-condition="

This letter is to denounce, that when you turn 70, you are already out of the public health prevention system. Specifically, the protocol for the early detection of breast cancer begins at the age of 50. You get a mammogram every two years and so on up to the age of 70. Moment when they warn you that you are already away from home and that if you need to go to your doctor.

In the colon cancer early diagnosis protocol one participates through a fecal occult blood sampling. But by the time you turn 70, you are already told that you are already out, due to your age. I find it scandalous, why this discrimination due to our age?

With this letter I express my strongest protest and ask the health authorities not to exclude usn of these prevention protocols due to our age, as we need and deserve them. Because health is the most important thing even if you are 70 years old.
