In 2019, it was found that over 50 percent of Spanish individuals surveyed were very concerned about developing or redeveloping cancer in their lifetime, the highest level of concern among the selected European countries. In Sweden, more respondents were not concerned about developing cancer compared to those who were concerned, the only country in the statistic where this is the case.
