Colorectal cancer is surging in an unexpected group — and it’s ‘developing differently’
NY Post ^ | October 27, 2026 | Allie Yang

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the US, but its target population is changing.

While rates have steadily decreased for more than a decade in adults over 65, cases among another population are suddenly exploding.

Now, scientists are racing to understand why this shift is happening — and why these new cases are so aggressive.

You may have seen that colorectal cancer is rising among people younger than 50.

However, new research reveals that this increase is most dramatic among a younger population within that group: kids aged 10 to young adults in their early 20s.

In fact, one study shows that the younger the group, the more stark the increase: colorectal cancer (CRC) surged a shocking six-fold in kids aged 10 to 14 from 1999 to 2020.

The disease more than quadrupled among teens 15 to 19, and almost doubled in young adults aged 20 to 24 during the same time period.

Another study showed that during that time frame, CRC incidence was relatively stable from 1999 to 2012. Then, incidence among children ages 10 to 14 began climbing at an estimated 70.54% annually from 2012 to 2015 — a rate that compounds to a nearly 400% increase over those three years.

But rising cases are only part of why these colorectal cancer trends are so troubling.

Why colorectal cancer appears differently in younger patients Experts are concerned not only about the rising rates, but about how different the CRC behaves when younger folks develop the disease.

Of course, you know the surge in young ass cancer predates the Covid vax by at least a decade.

Right?

Your scenario is at least possible within the realm of time.

Far from the first time this vaccine has been portrayed as having travelled through time.

Indeed - those who claimed time travel is not possible have been proven wrong yet again.

What else have they been hiding?

Its caused by food additives they are consuming.

Maybe you would have a chance of being right if the numbers over 65 didn’t drop like a rock. If it was the shot, the over 65 would still be getting it at the same numbers pre-shots. sorry to be the bearer of bad news on your excitement.

Maybe if the years 2012-2015 weren’t before the year 2021 it might also help...

Chasing God out of the classroom sure didn’t usher in The Age Of Reason.

This is all the result of eliminating dodge ball in schools.

Pampers...Stop using them.

Epidemiologists would begin to look at what changed right before these children were born. Were any new vaccines introduced around this time? Pampers have been around for ages but maybe they introduced a new chemical in them.

By the way, years ago, in the early 1900's, there were no pampers. Most kids stopped wearing any diapers by 18 months.

“then Pfizer added in SV40 without reason.”

Actually it wasn't entirely without reason. The problem Pfizer had was when they had to scale up the vaccine lots from 400 liters to be able to produce adequate sized lots for commercial sales.

They were forced to use a E-coli “soup” to grow the Mrna. That solution was contaminated with SV40. Normally the solution was purified and the SV40 removed but true to form Pfizer had sloppy quality control resulting in varying amounts of SV40 as well as other substances. It seems have come down to an issue of time and $$ over safety.

Good information, thanks for sharing.

I know Cancers are increasing for all kinds of reasons, obesity, aging, pollutants, plastics, food additives etc., SV40 isn’t going to help.

Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna both had bad batches, recall Japan had to toss millions because of contaminants. Makes you wonder just how sloppy their quality control always was.

At least the Japanese had someone looking out for them, doubtful if those Walgreens execs we’re paying as close attention.

However I don’t believe the Covid shots are (or were) intended as some kind of population control, hardly. But I do believe it was actually something far more sinister at work in the larger scheme of how things will ultimately play out in the not too distant future. They will be back with a DNA solution.

I think it's the over prescribing of antibiotics, especially black box warning cipro which came on the market in 1987. Doctors give them out like candy.

They kill off the bad and good bacteria in the gut.

Actually... Pampers have been around since the 1960s... They were too expensive for most, but by the late 70s they were being used more and more... And almost all infants were wearing them by the 1990s. My brother wasn’t rich and all three of his children born in the late 1970s wore pampers... I changed them myself.

His children are now 50, 49 and 48... None of them have developed cancer, but I worry for them. My family has a very strong history of cancer.

Were there disposable diapers in the 70s?

AI Overview

Yes, disposable diapers existed in the 1970s and grew increasingly popular, though they were bulkier and more expensive than modern versions.

Actually... There's no need to worry...

Are pampers causing cancer?

AI Overview

No, there is no scientific evidence proving that Pampers cause cancer. Independent health and regulatory bodies around the world maintain that commercial disposable diapers are safe for daily use.

The concern stems from several laboratory studies and news reports that detected trace amounts of potentially hazardous chemicals in disposable diapers. However, global experts emphasize that the presence of a trace chemical does not automatically equal a health risk.

Apparently Procter and Gamble are in the clear, it's not like they could afford to doctor studies into the 'trace' hazardous chemicals used in their product.

The Covid clot shot. The gift that keeps on giving. Bill Gates is happy.
