Fundashon Prevenshon is waiting for permits for colon cancer research

Local | By Correspondent May 13, 2019

WILLEMSTAD - Fundashon Prevenshon has a new home. The blue-green building on Molenplein, which served as a police station for a long time, was restored.

Professor Bob Pinedo, the oncologist is happy, because in the building on Klipstraat miracles were performed, but it was so tight for running a center that does research into breast and cervical cancer.

We still have to wait for the necessary permits, because then Molenplein will also start researching colon cancer. The intention is that eventually the entire population in the age category between 50 and 75 can be tested every two years.

When the time comes, the number of cases of colon cancer can be considerably reduced.
