October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Knight Transportation encourages our team members to be healthy and happy. To help you and your family minimize the risks of breast cancer, we outlined a few facts below and have attached a helpful information flyer for your reference.
In the United States, 310,720 women and 2,800 men were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023.
If breast cancer is detected in the earliest stages, the 5-year relative survival rate is 93%.
Roughly half of all breast cancers occur in women with no specific risk factors other than sex and age. So along with your regularly scheduled mammogram screenings, self-checks are important to help aid in early detection.
If you haven’t yet seen your doctor for your regular screening or mammogram, make an appointment today!
