Experts scramble to understand rising cancer rates in young adults <~ Becker’s Hospital Review

Cancer diagnosis rates among people under 50 are on the rise. In the U.S, the rate among this group jumped nearly 13% from 2000 — when it was 95.6 per 100,00 people — to 107.8 by 2019. Physicians and scientists are baffled, scrambling to determine what’s beneath the surge and how to identify people at high risk, The Wall Street Journal reported Jan. 11.

“We have to find out why,” Ahmedin Jemal, PhD, senior vice president at the American Cancer Society, told the publication. “Otherwise, the progress we have made in the last 50 years may stall or reverse.” 

Gastrointestinal cancers are among those rising fastest in young people. Colorectal cancer trends have been especially concerning: The rate of colon cancer diagnoses among people under 55 has doubled from 1 in 10 in 1995 to 1 in 5 in 2019, according to a report the American Cancer Society published last spring, which also found a growing proportion of younger adults diagnosed with advanced-stage disease. 

UT NOTE: And since 2019 and the advent of the mRNA injections the rates of increase have accelerated, but the US Govt-mainstream media taboo against insinuating there may be or is something wrong with the injections continues uninterrupted by reality. Excess deaths are the most obvious impact of the global CV-19 mass injections

A child of the peace and antiWar movements, a Truther with self-diagnosed Opposition Defiance Disorder, formerly politically liberal tho now politically marooned, and Post-Doomer, on any issue, I trend to the conspiracy side, sort through the absurd, fantastical and insane, until I find firm ground usually located just the other side of the censorship firewall of propaganda and orthodoxy, dogma, and other either / or thinking.
