Scientists are scrambling to find the cause of a mystery cancer 'epidemic' which is striking under-50s. Kate Middleton's shock diagnosis last week has shone a light on the startling trend, with top doctors claiming it is a worldwide problem.[Snip]Professor Sikora also said that the increase has been observed for years and there are a number of reasons experts suspected were to blame. Its' got nothing to do with Covid or vaccines--it started happening long before,' he said. 'I believe its probably due to lifestyle changes--obesity, fatty diet, sedentary behaviour, sitting at desks all day and of course better diagnostics.'

If what he says is correct, I don't think Kate Middleton is obese and sedentary. He needs to go back to the drawing boards.

mRNA shots. My college professor microbiologist, cellular researcher and instructor in the medical school died a couple of days ago, his second heart attack since he took the mRNA shots. We discussed these shots many times via email, and both of us had prior heart attacks. I chose to NOT take their mRNA shots for reasons which turned out to be right on target. He chose to take the mRNA shots, because he didn't think that it would be a big deal. I sent him a link to the things that were being shown now in Senator Johnson's round table discussions with researchers and MDs, and his response, just a few days before is death was "It's very disappointing". Meaning the facts that we now know. And just today, find out he had another heart attack and died. I count it on the mRNA shots. And Kate's cancer....IMO, yes, her immune system, which prior to the mRNA shots had a 99.9999% chance of beating cancer before it was even known to Kate or doctors, was damaged so that it could not stop the cancer. This same microbiologist friend told me years ago, "You probably get cancer several times a week or more often, but your immune system almost always just wipes out the few cancerous cells and it is over. Only rarely does a cancer manage to elude the immune system." Dr. Fauci, Wuhan Labs and Pfizer, the biggest mass murderers EVER.

#2, 3, completely agree. Scientists/researchers who are actual scientists and researchers have been telling us that within the next five years deaths will be rising dramatically due to the vaccines and boosters. I believe them. Cancer seems to be popping up in younger age groups. Anyone with prior breathing problems knows already that something is very wrong. I have not ever been hospitalized except for the birth of my now grown children and since the virus and vaccine I have been in the hospital 4 times. No one wants to say it, but we all know it’s Covid related.

I refused to get the clot shot, despite almost constant pressure from family members. Now we are finding out that they never were preventative as we had been promised, and also that they cause a myriad of illnesses, including cancer. I will NEVER get another vaccination. I just can't trust what is in the vial and you cannot undo a shot.

LOL. “We don’t know what caused this, but it definitely wasn’t the experimental MRNA shot that messed with peoples’ DNA that we made everyone take that caused people’s DNA to mess up and turn into cancer. Absolutely not!”

We personally know non-smokers and family friends with no identifiable risk factors who have presented with advanced carcinomas out of the blue - and one who died within weeks of first becoming ill. To this physician's medical experience these are explainable only as yet another result of the mRNA covid vaccines. I spent decades of a university-based career developing drugs using what I was taught the proper and ethical route of multiple placebo-controlled trials in VOLUNTEERS who were INFORMED of both known risks and the potential for risks not yet recognized. None of these Covid shots were properly or ethically tested before being FORCED on all of us. My wife and I - being retired - were fortunate to be able to refuse. Most of my colleagues were not so lucky.

fta: Professor Sikora also said that the increase has have been observed for years and there are a number of reasons experts suspected were to blame. 'Its' got nothing to do with Covid or vaccines - it started happening long before,' he said. 'I believe its probably due to lifestyle changes - obesity, fatty diet, sedentary behaviour, sitting at desks all day and of course better diagnostics.' There also appears to be a gender divide in cancer rates among the young. CRUK data shows women in their early 40s, like Kate, are twice as likely (2.1 times), to get cancer than a man of the same age. A similar gender divide is also present among cancer diagnoses in their 30s and late 40s. ---- This is NOT Covid or the vaccine. This increase has been happening for 20 years. More than likely it is sedentary lifestyles and obesity. Women (and men) are fatter in their 20's to 40's than they have ever been in human history. It takes a toll. Over 40% of adults in the UK and US are obese, not simply overweight, obese. That is insane.

Very possible #15. I doubt the "vaccine" helped many people. I just don't want folks dismissing our unsustainable fat and lazy lifestyle and laying all the blame on Covid and the "vaccine." Regardless of vaccine status, being fat and lazy will probably take 10+ years off your life and may make the last 5-10 more difficult. We need to eliminate processed and most restaurant foods from our diets. We need to get rid of seed oils and replace with healthy pure good quality fats, eat high quality meat/fish and veggies, lower our carbs and up our fiber, and MOVE our lazy buns!!

Maybe there is some woman somewhere named "Kate Middleton" that fits this description: " 'I believe its probably due to lifestyle changes--obesity, fatty diet, sedentary behaviour, sitting at desks all day and of course better diagnostics.' " but it ain't Catherine Windsor, Princess of Wales. Who is this Kate Middleton person they keep mentioning? Is she some relation to that dead girl, Diana Spencer?

#5~ Assuming the verbiage is attributed to President Trump, the reality is that just because President Trump consented to allowing covid vaccines to be developed does not mean he bears or should bear responsibility for it. Not being a physician or in the medical field, President Trump had no recourse but to rely on people in the field within the federal government to keep him informed and to guide whatever decisions might be necessary to protect people from a virus that was being touted as serious, as deadly. He “convinced drug companies to release the first round of vaccines sooner than they wanted, which he then used as justification to end lockdowns. THIS HALTED THE DESTRUCTION OF PRIVATE BUSINESSES AND THE ECONOMY. ... In the process of rushing their vaccines to market, drug companies would have had to take shortcuts. In doing so, they likely engaged in ‘willful misconduct.’ If so, the evidence of their misconduct will be used in class action lawsuits that might destroy companies like Pfizer and Moderna, SINCE ENGAGING IN WILLFUL MISCONDUCT REMOVES THEIR IMMUNITY FROM LIABILITY.” The question of whether President Trump was aware of safety concerns at the FDA prior to launching Operation Warp Speed was raised and SUBSEQUENTLY learned the FDA is controlled by Pfizer. That raised another question of whether President Trump “knew this ‘before’ he allowed Pfizer to fast-track its covid vaccine. ... If he knew the FDA was controlled by Pfizer, and if he was aware of safety problems, why would he urge them to develop and approve a covid vaccine in record time? Here’s a hint: Immunity from damages is granted to vaccine manufacturers UNLESS THEY ENGAGE IN WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. HOW DO YOU PUBLICLY EXPOSE THE BIG PHARMA SCAM?”

They are hiding the actual statistics and cause by spreading their cases out over decades. I think if you examined the yearly cases, you would find that the incidence was pretty much a plateau till 2021, then began to sharply increase. But this would point directly at the "Shots". Some researchers have noted the the mRNA invades the cells and causes damage. Then the Damaged cells divide.(We call this situation, cancer). The French tried to do something similar about 2 decades ago with the objective of curing genetic diseases. They were terminated and aside from rumors of some pretty horrific results were never publisized to any great degree. No cures came of it, and some test subjects died. When I first heard what the vaccine was (Unfortunately after my first shots, I was appalled. I expressed my concerns to my children, and they never got the shots at all. All of us have had Covid, whether we got the shots or not. I (vaccinated and my daughter *unvaccinated) had the lightest symptoms. Science has failed science these days and has become merely propaganda for our "Dear Leaders". Real Science is critical, factual, investigative and argumentative. The fact these creatures censor opinions they don't like proves Real Science is the last thing on their minds. They are the High Priests of technology, and Technology better supply the results we want, or else!!!

I think there is a combination of reasons but I think the vaccinations add to it when someone does not have a very good lifestyle. That alone has many factors. Alcohol, drugs, GMO additives to food, lack of exercise and the list goes on. God made our bodies wonderfully and we humans take them for granted. . .

In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia.
