Could it because of decreased mortality from other factors like infectious disease or malnutrition, which would allow for cancer to rise to the top for cause of death?
- loeg 3y agoYeah. If more people are living long enough to have cancer, you'll see more cancer.
- moralestapia 3y agoFWIW, age expectancy has been above 50 y/o for a while, even in developing countries.
- bobthepanda 3y agoThere is also the effect of improved health systems being able to diagnose more. You’re not going to get a cancer diagnosis if you don’t have access to a hospital.
- theGnuMe 3y agonot 80% more.
