Recent data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reveals a striking contrast in cancer risk between India and developed nations like the US and Canada. While the risk of developing cancer before the age of 75 is significantly lower in India at 10.6%, compared to 34.3% in the US and 32.2% in Canada, the death risk for Indians stands at 7.2%, almost on par with the figures for both the US and Canada at 8.8%.
