At 300K+ diagnosed every year, breast cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer. It’s disgusting to know that some of these people are suffering or dying from corporate greed. Hopefully this leads to a downturn in new cases of breast cancer.
I thought skin cancer was the most common form of cancer
I just double checked. Skin cancer is the most common in the US. Globally it’s now lung cancer at 12.4%, with breast cancer second at 11.6% in 2022.
So we're both wrong
Yup. That doesn’t change the initial point though. It still affects over 300k people a year. It’s just as concerning as the second most common form of cancer worldwide.
Dw bro I agree. Cancer's a bitch
Silent Spring is still one of the most metal names ever.
