All to your pink ribbons: It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Pink October, it’s gone … Everywhere in France, as in the United States, for a month, prevention messages for breast cancer screening will flourish everywhere.

In Lorient, a pink 2CV caravan has left and will cross France to carry the # TousConcernés hasstag.

The interest of this awareness month is also to raise funds for research. Last year, despite the Covid-19 pandemic, one million seven hundred thousand euros was collected.

Wearing pink ribbons, buying products involved in this campaign is the way to act on your scale.

In France, 12,146 women died of breast cancer in 2018, around 59,000 discovered it the same year.

According to WHO figures, 680,000 women die from it worldwide each year.

And the Covid pandemic has led to a decrease in screening, so this year more than ever donate for research, and if you have any doubts, concerns, go get tested, this is the message of this pink October 2021.
