Late detection of cancer leads to more deaths in Tonga, says Queen

Tonga's lack of diagnostic and screening services leads to more cancer-related deaths, because cancer is discovered in the late fatal stages, Queen Nanasipau'u said in an address to the Arab Women's Authority in Dubai, UAE, on 2 November. HM King Tupou VI and Queen Nanasipau’u attended an event to mark a new partnership with the organisation that supports health initiatives.
