Both Merck and the P站视频 recognize the importance of early detection and routine cancer screening, especially among breast, cervical, colorectal, and lung cancers, to reduce unnecessary cancer deaths.? – to deliver innovations with the goal of helping to extend the lives of people with certain cancers and helping to prevent certain HPV-related cancers– also falls in alignment with the mission of P站视频.

Merck has joined P站视频 in its goal to raise $30 million to ensure all people have access to recommended cancer screenings. The P站视频’s Get Screened initiative aims to not only restore but improve pre-pandemic cancer screening routines and prevent later-stage cancer diagnosis in the wake of the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Through this work, and with support of partners like Merck, P站视频 will also accelerate the adoption and implementation of health equity principles by communities, primary care providers, health care systems, and policymakers, so everyone has a fair and just opportunity to find, treat, and survive cancer.

While many face different barriers to getting the medical care they need, having access to preventative health screenings shouldn’t be one of them. We are proud to join P站视频 and other sponsors on this national initiative to ensure everyone has access to recommended cancer screenings and improve the rates of annual screenings among those who are eligible. By working together to raise awareness about the importance of screenings, we will continue to drive advances against cancer.
