The Core will be a big leap for the company IMHO:

* China’s cancer death rate has risen 80% in the past 30 years
* cancer causes 2.1 million deaths annually in China
* the cancer mortality rate in China is approximately 144 per 100,000 people according to the World Health Organization – compare that to 123 in the US, 135 in the UK and 76 in India
* almost one on five people in China will get a malignancy (most likely lung, stomach, liver, esophageal or colorectal cancer) before age 75, according to the WHO
* Smoking is the biggest contributing factor to cancer death rates in China, which has 350 million smokers and another 500 million affected by second-hand smoke. Add to that the effects of air pollution, and lung cancer is the number one killer in cities
* The WHO estimates China will have more than 1 million new lung cancer patients a year by 2025 if smoking and pollution are not brought under control
