Uh... I think it is what it's saying though? I mean, you should probably still get a colonoscopy if recommended by your doctor which it probably will be right now... but the effects of this study may be to change those recommendations down the line, that is what it suggests. (I think it's not the first, but I'm not sure).

The summary I read on CNN: > In this study, about 12,000 people in Sweden, Poland and Norway got colonoscopies. They saw a 31% reduction in their risk of colon cancer and a 50% reduction in their risk of dying from colon cancer compared with people who were not invited to get a colonoscopy. https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/10/health/colonoscopy-study-q-and-a-wellness/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/10/health/colonoscopy-study-q-an...
