Albany firefighters who want to get themselves screened for cancer will be able to do so this weekend.
That's because Saint Peter's Health Partners is holding a screening event Saturday from 9:00 am until 12:00 pm at Capital Region Urology which is on South Manning Boulevard. Tests will be conducted for a variety of cancers and other health issues. The CDC says due to some of the chemicals they're exposed to, cancer is a leading cause of death among firefighters.
