San Francisco is initiating a pioneering cancer screening program for firefighters, supported by a $500,000 funding announcement from Mayor Daniel Lurie. This program aims to provide advanced imaging scans to active-duty firefighters aged 40 and above who have served for a minimum of five years. Given that cancer is a leading cause of fatalities among firefighters, this initiative seeks to ensure proactive health measures for those who risk their lives for the community.
"When there is danger, you run towards it. You are the protectors of San Francisco. And today, we are here to protect you."
"The program will provide advanced imaging scans, typically not covered by insurance for all active-duty firefighters over the age of 40 with at least five years of service."
