So ignorant. Learn some basic science.

[@spevman]

The study being talked about has arranged from 1995 to 2020. Before COVID and before COVID vaccines. Touch grass, cooker. 💩🤡🙄

[@spevman]

@rocketdock11 Yes, it is. And as I also said earlier due to just the timeline of the study alone, it has nothing to do with COVID or COVID vaccines. That is, unless either of those two things can time travel back to before 2020. 🤡

I find it weird how the only resson they are saying it's higher in young people when the only evidence they have to back this up is the fact that princess kate got it

[@spevman]

It's not the only evidence. Her getting it is just anecdotal. There was a study done looking at date ranges for 1995 to 2020 and the only age group of people seeing an increase in the incidences of cancer where people under 50. This could be because of better detection and catching it earlier or it could be because of other environmental factors like pollution or preservatives in our food

[@darkhackbong1511]

@@spevman oh alright that makes sense

[@xxxxMonkeyGirlxxxx]

It’s the pesticides in food and PFAS in water. These are known to cause cancer but no one knows the long term ramifications of people consuming them. I believe we are now starting to find out.

[@spevman]

@@xxxxMonkeyGirlxxxx That's entirely possible, but then why is it only affecting a rise in cancers detected in people under 50. People older than 50 are drinking water and eating food. I think it's more likely because we have better detection techniques and technologies now so people are being diagnosed with cancer at an age younger than they previously would have been diagnosed at. Better detection means detecting it earlier when people are more likely to benefit from treatment and survive.
