From a population-based study of the data on 36 cancer types from 185 countries/territories, "By 2050, 35.3 million cancer cases worldwide are expected, a 76.6% increase from the 2022 estimate of 20 million. Similarly, 18.5 million cancer deaths are projected by 2050, an 89.7% increase from the 2022 estimate of 9.7 million. Cancer cases and deaths are projected to nearly triple in low-HDI (Human Development index) countries by 2050, compared to a moderate increase in very high–HDI countries (142.1% vs 41.7% for cancer cases and 146.1% vs 56.8% for cancer deaths). Males had a higher incidence and greater number of deaths than females in 2022, with this disparity projected to widen.."
“A group of scientists, architects and other experts is calling for government action to mandate indoor air quality standards and improve ‘terrible’ ventilation in Australian schools that can hamper learning.”

“Any other NYC schools dealing with mycoplasma pneumoniae right now? 10 kids out on the same day in one class, 8 over two days in another (so far).
