The World Health Organization (WHO) expects cancer cases to soar all over the globe. The WHO made this announcement in a report released on Wednesday, in which the agency said cancer remains the world’s second-leading cause of death after cardiovascular disease, claiming more than 26,000 lives daily.

But by 2050, cancer will affect 90% of the population either through diagnosis of themselves or a close relative. WHO estimates that there are currently nearly 10 million deaths and 20.6 million new cases of cancer annually. The agency is warning that without urgent action, the latest figure will rise to 35 million by 2050.

One in five people is expected to develop cancer during their lifetime, with lung cancer remaining the deadliest form, according to a report by RT.

Moderna Confirms Link Between COVID mRNA Vaccines and Cancer

Dozens of countries are currently developing cancer vaccines using different approaches. Russia has been actively working on personalized mRNA cancer vaccines tailored to individual tumors. Two experimental therapies – Neooncovac for melanoma and Oncopept for colorectal cancer – were cleared for clinical use in March. More than 40 patients have since enrolled, with the first recipients already showing a strong immune response. The vaccines are expected to be provided free under Russia’s national health insurance system once their clinical effectiveness is confirmed. –RT

All mRNA Injections, Including Cancer Vaccines, May Accelerate the Development of Cancer

Cancer is a leading cause of medical bankruptcy worldwide, and despite rapid advances in treatment, the WHO says survival increasingly depends on where patients live and their financial circumstances. Five-year survival for breast and childhood cancers exceeds 85% in high-income countries but falls below 45% in low-income nations, it estimates.

People should focus on preventing cancer by living as healthy a lifestyle as they can. Eating well and focusing on a proper human diet could be the key to preventing cancer, rather than vaccines.
