The Leader and Campaigner of Breast Care International Ghana, Dr Mrs Beatrice Wiafe-Addae, has debunked the myth that suckling on a woman’s breast will keep her from getting breast cancer.
It was also not true, according to her, that men fondling the breasts of women would protect them from breast cancer.
Dr Mrs Wiafe-Addae, who is also the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Peace and Love Hospitals in Accra and Kumasi, said this in response to a question at a breast cancer awareness campaign forum at Kitase, near Aburi, in the Akuapem South Municipality in the Eastern Region.
The event was attended by both women and men: traders, drivers and students from junior high schools within the Kitase area.
