New data is providing new hope in the fight against cancer. An annual report from the American Cancer Society reveals the cancer death rate fell two-point-two percent between 2016 and 2017 – the largest-ever single-year decline. Cancer mortality rates have decreased 29 percent since 1991, resulting in roughly two-point-nine million fewer cancer deaths in the U-S. April Dzubic with the American Cancer Society in Missouri says progress is encouraging and empowering.
