What's actually happening is that more people are GETTING cancer This means that more people are dying from cancerpic.twitter.com/wdnG3VdV4Z
Why are more people getting cancer? In a word: aging Can't get bowel cancer at 75 if you're dead at 50!pic.twitter.com/Z4USSY5MK5
As the population ages, diseases like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease - which are all age-related - become more and more of an issue THIS IS A GOOD THING
Cancer deaths AS A PROPORTION may be increasing, but ABSOLUTE cancer death risk is dropping dramatically
We could also reduce the cancer death rate by cutting down smoking, alcohol and the like, but even then we are likely to see a higher proportion of cancer deaths in the future because age just makes it more likely to happen
In general, life expectancy is continuing its steady march upwards, indicating that despite the scary headlines we are all stubbornly getting healthier every year
Something to celebrate
