Lance Armstrong: We’ve taken our eye off the ball
Lance Armstrong, seven-winner of the Tour de France and cancer survivor, says it is time for America as society to stand up and renew its commitment to the war against cancer. At a National Call to Action on Cancer Prevention and Survivorship, Armstrong says that America has taken its eye off the ball. Armstrong says the American society has let the cancer situation persist in homes and hospitals and America has not focused its priorities on dealing with cancer. (0:30)
