2 euro France 2017 - 25 years of the fight against breast cancer (proof)

The France 2017 €2 coin celebrates 25 years of the fight against breast cancer, representing an important milestone in medical research, prevention and treatment of the disease. Since the first national breast-cancer screening programmes were introduced in some countries, significant progress has been made in diagnosing and treating the condition. Improved public awareness, access to a higher standard of care and research into new treatment methods have contributed to higher survival rates and an improved quality of life for those affected. Despite successes in the fight against breast cancer, continued efforts are needed to raise awareness, research new therapies and support patients and their families in their struggle with the disease.
