That is why the medical profession is so hard at work to alert people to the ways to prevent and screen for cancer, to make them easier to treat and raise the survival rates overall. This strategy has worked, since deaths from many types of cancer seem to be on the decline. One cancer that can become quite serious if left unchecked is skin cancer melanoma. In the early stages of this disease, the survival rate can be as high as 99%.
