AfD politician suffers from breast cancer
Breast cancer is by far the most common cancer among women in Germany, according to the German Cancer Research Center.
AfD politician Corinna Miazga is one of around 69,000 patients who are first diagnosed with breast cancer each year.
Almost three in ten women affected will be under 55 when they are diagnosed.
The risk of developing breast cancer increases with age, according to data from the German Cancer Research Center.
Between the ages of 35 and 45, the risk of developing breast cancer is still comparatively low.
One in 110 women aged 35 expect to fall ill within the next ten years, from 45 it is already one in 48 and at 65 it is even one in 30 women.
