Bless you Dr. Azra. Do not yield. Love always.

Very fascinating! This is important. Please share it with others or your doctor.

If the single biggest risk factor (by far) of getting cancer is aging.. then treating it as a disease, like that of infection, seems doomed from the start. Regarding the 27m mark, I thought PSA screenings suffer from false-positive.. but not that it actually increases cancer (like the ultrasound thyroid example in S.Korea). Also, any thoughts on the 4Kscore? Would have like to have heard more about machine learning and perhaps the work by Mary Lou Jepsen, who is researching a very innovative and inexpensive approach to screening! Dannielle Engle interview on the Salk's Where Cures Begin podcast, mentions the particular difficulty with detecting pancreatic cancer. BTW, there was a great article by Siddhartha in the New Yorker called 'The Promise and Price of Cellular Therapies'.
