April is Cancer Control Month.

Cancer burden refers to the number of cancer cases and the effects of cancer in a country, community, family, or even, in just one person.

Though cancer control itself was far from a new idea, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared the first Cancer Control Month in April 1943. As Americans fought in the second World War, President Roosevelt noticed that cancer too was a deadly enemy.

The difference between cancer and the enemies on the battlegrounds, however, was that Americans took far less notice of the deadly disease. At that time, cancer was claiming the lives of nearly 150,000 Americans each year despite many deaths being preventable by regular medical examinations.

This realization led President Roosevelt to declare April as Cancer Control Month and to call upon medical professionals, schools, universities, media, and all other agencies and individuals to join his movement.
