What is shocking about it?
What some people find shocking is that breast cancer is such a major health
concern but that there is so little public recognition of prostate cancer, a
leading killer of men. Women get free screening for breast cancer here,
though there is some controversy of the usefulness of mammograms. Meanwhile,
there is almost no public dialogue or public awareness about prostate
cancer, and we have to pay for PSA tests.
