Cancer Is Striking More Young People, and Doctors Are Alarmed and Baffled
WSJ ^ | 1/11/2024 | Brianna Abbott

Meilin Keen was studying for the bar exam and preparing to move to New York City last June when she started throwing up blood.

Keen, 27 years old, learned days later that she has gastric cancer. She postponed the bar exam. Brain fog from chemotherapy made it hard to do her legal work.

Surgeons removed her stomach in December. Keen is coming to terms with all that means for her diet, her health, even her dating life. “That’s a fun icebreaker: I don’t have a stomach anymore,” she said.

Cancer is hitting more young people in the U.S. and around the globe, baffling doctors. Diagnosis rates in the U.S. rose in 2019 to 107.8 cases per 100,000 people under 50, up 12.8% from 95.6 in 2000, federal data show. A study in BMJ Oncology last year reported a sharp global rise in cancers in people under 50, with the highest rates in North America, Australia and Western Europe.

Doctors are racing to figure out what is making them sick, and how to identify young people who are at high risk. They suspect that changes in the way we live—less physical activity, more ultra-processed foods, new toxins—have raised the risk for younger generations.

“The patients are getting younger,” said Dr. Andrea Cercek, who co-directs a program for early-onset gastrointestinal cancer patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, where Keen was treated. “It’s likely some environmental change, whether it’s something in our food, our medications or something we have not yet identified.”

Where’s the usual Big Pharma trolls to tell us this is all imaginary or normal and that it has nothing to do with their mRNA Death Shot?

Baffled?! And to think we rely on the medical community at times to help keep up healthy.

“Baffled”??

The kind of response you would expect from the medical professionals who pushed the population to the “shot” because it was “Safe and Effective”.

It’s white supremacy, or climate change.

I wonder if there were some largely untested large scale medical program that was practically forced on 80% of the US population that may account for this?

It could be these people were getting Covid shots before there was Covid.

One thing we know for sure: It can’t possibly have ANYTHING to do with pfizer’s or moderna’s synthetic mRNA injections.
