According to the National Cancer Institute there are 1,630 thyroid cancer deaths each year. Not good if you're one of the statistics. But you should know that thyroid cancer deaths are not that common. In fact, it's one of the most curable kinds of cancer. I think the survival rate is something like 97 percent. Hope this is the info you were looking for.
