Peskov said that the head of state will hold a meeting on the program of cancer centers.
“And several centers will be opened across the country via video conference. In several regions,” he said.
Last November, the head of the Ministry of Health, Mikhail Murashko, reported that mortality in Russia from cancer had decreased by 5.6% over the past four years.
He added that over the four years of implementation of the federal project “Fighting Cancer,” it was possible to achieve breakthrough results in the fight against the disease and consolidate positive trends.
