The reason people die from pancreatic cancer when they get it is because we can’t detect it early.
- ZainRiz 4y ago"problem" is a bit of a strong word, but when someone says "Cancer Death Rate Dropped" dropping people assume "Cancer Rate Dropped", which is not at all the same thing The article provides no numbers about cancer rate dropping. Yet the false association between the two ideas is so strong that even the authors themselves seem to theorize that the cancer rate itself is dropping because people don't smoke as often now. Conflating those two concepts seems like a Very Bad Idea
- Retric 4y agoThe % of the US population that dies every year from cancer has dramatically reduced. The % the US population that is detected to have cancer is up dramatically. The rate of people getting cancer in the US is a different question, but presumably it’s been increasing due to the aging population independent of other causes. https://www.statista.com/statistics/241494/median-age-of-the-us-population/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/241494/median-age-of-the...
