Poorer women in Britain have some of the highest death rates from cancer in Europe, an in-depth new World Health Organization study has found.They are much more likely to die from the disease compared with better-off women in the UK and women in poverty in many other European countries.Women in the UK from deprived backgrounds are particularly at risk of dying from cancer of the lungs, liver, bladder and oesophagus (foodpipe), according to the research by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the WHO's specialist cancer body.
