Game-changer! There is NO excuse for not offering annual screening @40. To do so leads to avoidable deaths, suffering, and expense to the taxpayer. All women should be informed about these benefits, recalls and overdiagnosis, and have the choice to be screened. @cantaskforce
Our new study shows starting breast screening at age 40 is not only cost effective- it is cost savings. As treatment costs rise exponentially for advanced cancers, earlier diagnosis with screening saves both lives and $ @JeanSeely @uOttawaMed @JRENAUD28 @MoiraRushton @CanadaSBI

And yet @cantaskforce draft says that women 40-49 should not be systematically screened. How many advanced cancers, avoidable deaths and suffering justify this recommendation?
Barriers should be removed for women 40-49.

@WSEUSoccer U17GP1 Farewell dinner. Fantastic night. This group finishes their youth career as one of the top Development/Premier teams. Only team to have many players from U9-17 with one club. Honour to have coached this team all these years.

Cheap gas but archaic breast cancer screening guidelines 🙄. #screen40not50 #supplementalscreeningforCandD #FriendlyManitoba #mbpoli
A message to MB Docs, I had breast cancer symptoms when examined at 40. No mammo was prescribed. I found my own highly aggressive, node positive lump at 43. Change legislation now @UAsagwara

Shameful Breast Screening guidelines in Manitoba. I found my breast cancer at 43. I wish my doc had sent me for annual mammograms at 40. The antiquated guidelines ignored me; so many others aren't even alive-tell Ministr @UAsagwara by signing:

📢 Please add your name to this open letter to Health Minister Asagwara in advocating for better breast cancer screening in Manitoba. With a mammo at 40, my life outcome and incurable lymphedema would be very different.

Manitobans need to be able to self refer for breast screening at 40. We are behind the other provinces and breast cancer doesn't wait. @WabKinew @UAsagwara
#40NOT50MB
The provinces/territories are following the science that @cantaskforce is not. Let's ensure that all individuals can self-refer and do not face barriers in finding breast cancer early. Early detection reduces suffering and saves lives. We need you too @WabKinew @francoislegault

Get screened at 40 please. It might save your life. thespec.com/opinion/contribu…
40 needs to be the age for recommended breast screening in Manitoba. It's a very risky precedent and mentality @WabKinew and @UAsagwara are setting by 'sitting back' on this life preserving recommendation. @densebreastscdn
