Harrison County, MO: The Harrison County Health Department, Home Health & Hospice, released their monthly letter stating March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, alerting the public to this type of cancer. Something the newsletter calls the most common but also the most preventable cancer affecting men and women in the United States. The best form of combat is routine screenings, which can detect precancerous polyps before they turn into cancer, meaning they don’t just detect cancer early; they can actually prevent it.
