UK Scrubs All Mention of Women From Ovarian Cancer WebsiteBy The Daily Bell Staff
June 17, 2022
In February, the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) website still mentioned the little fact that ovarian cancer only affects women.
In just the first three sentences, the words women and woman appeared four times.
It relayed important health information, such as that “cancer of the ovaries, is one of the most common types of cancer in women.”
But now, the website has been scrubbed of all mention of women. There is absolutely no indication that ovarian cancer specifically and exclusively affects females.
The website now says that “Ovarian cancer affects the 2 small organs (ovaries) that store the eggs needed to make babies,” and that “Anyone with ovaries can get ovarian cancer.”
