Who Gets
Cancer?
According
to the
American
Cancer
Society,
"Over
one
million
people
get
cancer
each
year.
About 1
out of
every 2
American
men and
1 out of
every 3
American
women
will
have
some
type of
cancer
at some
point
during
their
lifetime.
Anyone
can get
cancer
at any
age; but
about
77% of
all
cancers
are
diagnosed
in
people
age of
55 and
older.
Cancer
can be
found in
Americans
of all
racial
and
ethnic
groups,
but the
rate of
cancer
occurrence
(called
the
incidence
rate)
varies
from
group to
group.”
