Housecall for Health: Cancer Rates Dropping

The Centers for Disease Control are reporting a drop in a dangerous, often deadly disease, and hope to see the trend continue.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon reports in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

Audio clip:

Cancer rates in the U.S. continue to fall.  According to a new report from the CDC, the number of new cancer cases has been on the decline for the past 13 years.  Since 1999, the rate decreased by half a percent each year, and overall, cancer deaths are down nearly 2% annually.

Experts say that the positive momentum is likely to continue.
