Begum Samina Alvi, wife of President Arif Alvi on Thursday said Pakistan had the highest rate of breast cancer patients in Asia and stressed that early diagnosis was the key to addressing the challenge. Speaking at a panel discussion on breast cancer awareness organized by Pakistan Foreign Office Women’s Association (PFOWA), she said if the women knew early symptoms of the disease, the death rate could be reduced.
