Cancer Inquiry
Under the Direction of Mayor DiLascio, the Lyndhurst Health Department´s mission is “To protect the public health of our community by using the highest standards for disease control and prevention.” With a former resident conducting her own cancer study, questions have been raised about the incidence of cancer in Lyndhurst and the surrounding areas. Local public health departments do not have access to the NJ State Cancer Registry. Cancer studies are conducted at the state level. Therefore, the Lyndhurst Health Department has requested an inquiry by the NJ Cancer Surveillance Program to determine whether or not a problem exists in Lyndhurst. We expect to have the results of this inquiry within a month; at that time we will share the results with the public. For further information, please visit the NJ State Cancer Registry.
