Surprising culprit tied to 1 in 8 cancer cases worldwide, major study reveals

SO SOMEBODY FINALLY LOOKED INTO IT AND ABOUT ONE IN EIGHT NEW CANCER CASES GLOBALLY WAS TIED TO INFECTIONS WHICH IS TWO POINT THREE MILLION CASES IN 2024 ALONE AND I HAD TO SET MY GLASS DOWN BECAUSE THE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER PINPOINTED TWELVE SPECIFIC INFECTIONS WITH H PYLORI AND HPV AND HEPATITIS B LEADING THE ENTIRE BURDEN AND THE RESEARCHERS ARE SAYING A LOT OF THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED WITH VACCINATIONS AND SCREENINGS AND TREATMENT BUT INSTEAD IT DISPROPORTIONATELY HITS LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES AND THE THING IS THE STUDY ONLY COUNTED INFECTIONS ALREADY PROVEN TO CAUSE CANCER USING POPULATION DATA WHICH MEANS THE REAL IMPACT COULD ACTUALLY BE UNDERESTIMATED AND EIGHTY PERCENT OF THE POPULATION HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO CERTAIN STRAINS OF HPV ALONE.

THIS IS GOING TO SOUND FAKE BUT EIGHTY PERCENT OF THE POPULATION HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO CERTAIN STRAINS OF HPV ACCORDING TO THIS DOCTOR IN CALIFORNIA AND ABOUT FORTY THOUSAND PEOPLE IN THE U.S. GET DIAGNOSED WITH THOSE CANCERS EVERY SINGLE YEAR WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE THEN YOU ZOOM OUT AND AN IARC STUDY IN THE LANCET ONCOLOGY FOUND THAT TWELVE INFECTIONS CAUSED ONE IN EIGHT NEW CANCER CASES WORLDWIDE IN 2024 WHICH MEANS TWO POINT THREE MILLION CASES TIED TO THINGS LIKE H PYLORI AND HEPATITIS B AND THE THING IS RESEARCHERS SAY SO MANY COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED WITH VACCINES AND SCREENING BUT THE BURDEN FALLS DISPROPORTIONATELY ON LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES AND SINCE THEY ONLY COUNTED PROVEN PATHOGENS THE TRUE TOLL COULD BE UNDERESTIMATED.

A study from the International Agency for Research on Cancer found that 12 infections, led by H. pylori, HPV, and hepatitis B, were linked to 2.3 million cancer cases globally in 2024.
