Eliminate Prostate Cancer Testing?

"The United States Preventative Services Task Force has prepared a recommendation against prostate cancer testing for ALL MEN.  Among the many problems with this rash action is the fact that many men are high-risk not just for diagnosis but to DIE from prostate cancer.  Such a recommendation threatens to put them into harms way by telling their doctors that they should not be tested for prostate cancer.

"Tell them they're wrong - write a letter to your editor today."

"The United States Preventative Services Task Force has prepared a recommendation against testing for prostate cancer for ALL MEN.  This is a disservice to men - particularly men who are at highest risk of dying from prostate cancer.
 
"Please send a letter to your Representative and Senators today to bring their attention to this very harmful action and ask for their support to raise awareness about the importance of early detection and education about prostate cancer."
