Many of you will be aware of the publicity surrounding the increase in death from a number of causes such as breast cancer and heart conditions during the current pandemic because of the inability of the NHS to provide the required support at this time. Additional deaths from Prostate Cancer is right up there with them with an increase of 53% being quoted recently. Given there are already 12,000 or so deaths from this insidious disease a year this could add upwards of 6,500 men to  the statistics. So what can we all do to try to prevent this from happening?
