There was a lot more of that hazardous carcinogenic stuff 50 years ago though. Baby cribs used to be made from asbestos. Every other person was a smoker. Houses were painted with lead. This trend is very very recent.

Maybe car tires dust then?

there would be a clear geographic distribution of cancers along major highways vs rural areas with little traffic

which may be happening? not sure if anyone actually tried making a survey along those lines yet; I think currently most of the time a geographic distrubution of cancers is assessed to find chemical leaks e.g. superfund sites

I wouldnt trust my life with doctors, they are no better than religious academics.

The drug companies know more than them!

Were the crazies saying 5G causes cancer right after all?
