Which country has the lowest rate of cancer?

As an expert in global health statistics, I can provide you with information on cancer rates around the world. However, it's important to note that cancer rates can vary significantly based on the type of cancer, lifestyle factors, and the availability of screening and healthcare services. The data you've provided mentions the highest rates, but to determine the lowest rates, we would need to look at the most recent and comprehensive data available. According to the World Cancer Research Fund International, as of the latest data, the countries with some of the lowest cancer rates are often those with less developed healthcare systems or in regions where certain risk factors for cancer are less prevalent. For example, some countries in Africa have lower overall cancer rates, but this can be due to a variety of factors including lower life expectancy, different patterns of disease, and less access to cancer diagnosis and treatment. It's also important to consider that cancer rates are influenced by many factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and environmental exposures. Therefore, the country with the lowest rate of cancer may not necessarily be the best indicator of overall health or quality of life. For the most accurate and current information, it's best to refer to the latest reports from reputable organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) or the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).

The highest cancer rate for men and women together was found in Denmark with 338 people per 100,000 being diagnosed in 2012. The age-standardised rate was at least 300 per 100,000 for nine countries (Denmark, France, Australia, Belgium, Norway, US, Ireland, South Korea and the Netherlands).
