From the AFP News Service via Yahoo News UK:
Breast cancer kills nearly 40 percent more Chinese women than it did a decade ago and the disease is now targeting a younger age group, state media reported.Instead of looking to an obvious cause (forced abortion), the China Anti-Cancer Association is blaming a "faster and more stressful pace of life" and "the growing consumption of fast food and a higher fat diet."A survey carried out by the Ministry of Health indicated that the fatality rate of breast cancer rose 38.7 percent for women living in urban areas and 39.1 percent for rural women between 1991 and 2000, China Daily reported.
