Question by eileen: How Aflac calculate the premium for cancer policy? Do we have to get a medical diagnosis?
If someone was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancer 9 years ago, do you think he can get a cancer policy from Aflac?
I mean, do we have to have a diagnosis in order to but the policy?
Best answer:
Answer by Insurance Pickle.com
Age and amount of coverage determines the price, yes you need a diagnosis to make a claim (you can’t just think you have cancer), and no, someone that had cancer can’t get a cancer policy.

Question by ♥ summer sunshine ♥: What does cervical cancer vaccination do for me?
If I get it, what exactly does it prevent? What are the benefits?
Are there any downsides or any side effects to getting vaccinated for cervical cancer?
Best answer:
Answer by Gina
The vaccination is not for cervical cancer, it reduces your risk for cervical cancer by protecting you from HPV. HPV is a very common STD that does not have many noticeable symptoms. HPV can cause cervical cancer if left untreated, since it is not noticeable it usually goes untreated. The benefits are that you are protected against HPV, the downside is that the vaccination comes with the risk of side effects, can be painful and requires a series of vaccinations.

Question by cheerio: What percentage of people who get cancer die from it?
I know in most developed countries the chance of getting cancer is 33% but what I want to know is what percentage of those 33% die from it? I’ve looked on most of the major cancer research websites and I can’t find the answer.
Best answer:
Answer by The Chair
You won’t be able to find a definitive answer because there are many types of cancer and the outcome of treatment can very from person to person. there are also undiagnosed people who die from cancer and people in whom the cancer re-occurs time and time again. It’s an extremely broad area with infinite variants.

Question by Leticia W: What is the best donation for cancer research?
My friend’s brother has been diagnosed with cancer for the second time, I would like to donate as a Christmas present to the most honerable cancer research place.
Best answer:
Answer by fragglerockqueen
Honestly? I think the best donation you can give is to your friend’s brother. Insurance only covers so much – he will have a lot of financial responsibility to receive chemo and go through surgery. Otherwise, if you are looking to donate to a charity, anything that has to do with children since they are our future would be the most logical and have the largest impact (ie – children with luekemia).
Check out “Make a Wish Foundation.”
