Max Tracks: Africa – Tanzania

Get a never before seen look at the chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) program in Tanzania! Over 20 years ago, we partnered with local healthcare professionals to provide treatment access for people living with cancer – at no cost to them, for as long as they need
it.

Africa Region Head Cathy Scheepers takes you to clinics in Moshi and Dar es Salaam, talking with patients, advocates, and physicians about their progress and how we can reach more people living with CML.
