Episode Details

This morning we’re discussing new figures that raise serious questions about equality in Irish cancer care. A Parliamentary Question from Aontú has revealed significant regional and social disparities in breast cancer survival rates, suggesting that where you live — and whether you’re treated publicly or privately — can affect your chances of survival. On Thursday's Morning Focus, Alan Morrissey discussed the findings and what they mean on the ground with June Dillon, Aontú representative for Clare, and Anne Murphy, oncology nurse based in Tulla.
