Government ran healthcare...and so it begins.
Most women should wait until age 50 to get mammograms and then have one every two years, a government task force said Monday in a major reversal that conflicts with the American Cancer Society's long-standing recommendation of annual screening starting at 40.
Also, the task force said breast self-exams do no good and women shouldn't be taught to do them.
For nearly two decades, the cancer society has been recommending regular mammograms beginning at 40.
This is how they intent to cut cost, by having more people die.
