      In April Boseman did an Instagram video with encouraging words for his fans during the pandemic. People here and on Instagram mocked him and his weight loss and called him “Crack Panther.” He took the video down. #WadeOrmontWasRight

      Wonder why he didn't use his platform to promote colon cancer screening

      A suffering cancer patient is not obligated to become a public advocate, even if hers a celebrity and should not be judged negatively if he chooses not to.

          Also, screening for colorectal cancer doesn’t generally start until age 50. The very young age Boseman got cancer at suggests the likelihood of a familial cancer, although it is true that colorectal cancer is being diagnosed at younger ages these days.

          They moved it back to 45, 40 if your parents had polyps. Just had my first colonoscopy as a result. My ex died of colon cancer at 32 so I don't play around with that stuff.

          What is really bad about about Twitter...you assumed I was judging him..and I didn't say anything negative..i wasn't I just asked a general question..and you...as a MD...i am surprised you had this response.

          You keep implying that people were owed something, that he didn’t do ‘enough.’ You’re surprised that an MD would advocate for patient privacy? Did your aunt who had cancer become a huge booster for The American Cancer Society? No? Then why expect him to do so?
