[Photo/IC] China will make more effort over the next three years on the prevention and treatment of cancer, a top health threat in China, the nation's top health official said on Friday. Health authorities will establish a cancer registration and report system that covers all medical institutions at county level or above, and early screening, diagnosis and treatment of cancer will be promoted to reduce fatalities caused by cancer, Ma Xiaowei, minister in charge of the National Health Commission, citing a plan just approved by the State Council, China's cabinet. Ma made the comment during the ongoing annual sessions of China's top legislative body and advisory body in Beijing. The commission will ensure patients' accessibility to all anti-cancer drugs that have been included in the national basic medical insurance program, he said. Last year, a number of new anti-cancer drugs were added to the program and became reimbursable to basic medical insurance subscribers. The commission will ensure they are available in hospitals, Ma said. While emphasizing cancer prevention, authorities will take more measures to improve scientific research to solve bottleneck problems in cancer prevention and treatment, he said. custom bracelets canadaanimal shaped bracelets rubbercustom wristbands canadafundraising rubber wristbandssilicone wristband bracelet

The governments of Guangdong province and Hong Kong agreed to set the quota at 10,000 for private cars of Hong Kong using the 55-km-long Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, which opened to traffic last week. The Transport Department of HKSAR has handed out 5,000 permits to car owners before the bridge opened to traffic. As the traffic flow at the Hong Kong Port of the HZMB was generally smooth after it started service on Oct 24, the department decided to issue the remaining 5,000 permits to applicants. The remaining permits will be issued from Nov 5 through the end of the month, according to the department.
