Prolonged delays in screening related to the COVID-19 pandemic may lead to delayed diagnoses and poor health consequences. In light of the issue, Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur (PHKL) is launching their ‘Screen To Be Sure’ campaign to address the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer care, calling on people to act early and re-engage with appropriate healthcare screening.

In 2020, WHO reported total 48,639 new cancer cases in Malaysia, which is equivalent to 133 new cancer cases reported daily nationwide. It is important for Malaysians to understand the need for screening to be incorporated as a regular check-up routine. Early detection saves lives.’ said Zhen Yang, Head of Commercial Development at  Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur. 

In conjunction with the launch, PHKL will be providing screening vouchers and consultations on breast, lung and prostate cancers to all attending guests.

To reach the online community, PHKL is collaborating with social media influencers Joe Chang and Mia Chai. to enrich and encourage Malaysians to not miss out on potential treatment plans with a light-hearted Public Service Announcement video. ‘With 90 % of the Malaysian population being connected on social media, we hope to entice and nurture a more health-conscious generation of youth through fun, engaging and modernised content.’ adds Zhen Yang.
