Brussels, Today, 07:07
The Covid-19 crisis has revealed that the current European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) has neither the funding, the staff or – perhaps most importantly – the authority to lead an effective response to a pandemic in Europe.

Each year, the week between May 25 and 31 serves as European Week Against Cancer. Unfortunately, most of us have had dealings with this illness, either personally or by being close to a person who has gone through this experience.
Over three million people in the EU are diagnosed with cancer every year and 1.3 million people sadly pass away, which shows that, although a lot has been achieved in health policy at an EU level, it is still far from enough. In the European Parliament, I am part of the MEPs Against Cancer Interest Group, a number of MEPs who are committed to working together to improve cancer control and prevention in Europe.
