READ: The Cancer Industry: Hype Vs. Reality – Scientific American
WATCH:
“The average cost of cancer treatments nowadays is $100,000 per year, with patients shouldering a lot of the costs themselves… 40% of new cancer patients lose all of their life savings within 2 years.”
“Most new cancer prescriptions extend life by an average of 2.1 months”
What’s hundreds of thousands of dollars to a few more months of life?
Interesting to note that the rate of cancer mortality (adjusted for higher lifespans) is about the same today as it was in 1930. I like to hope that the billions of dollars we’re spending on research and treatments is making progress towards more effective cures, but how much of this wealth is benefitting the medical-industrial complex?
