A new report from the American Cancer Society shows the historic accomplishments of U.S. scientific research. As of now, 7 in 10 cancer patients survive five+ years after diagnosis.
Meanwhile NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya constantly disparages the agency he oversees.
Iβm happy to see the new American Cancer Society report showing that the U.S. has reached a historic milestone in cancer survivorship, where 70% of patients live for 5+ years after diagnosis.
But I also see it as a requiem, because the systems that made it happen have been destroyed.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. Itβs astoundingly anti-Christ.
