Global health experts say there will be more than 35 million new cases of cancer by 2050. The mortality rate of the disease will also increase. In this respect reports Daily Mail edition.
WHO (World Health Organization) experts predict that the number of cancer cases will exceed 35 million people by 2050. This represents a 77% increase compared to 2022, when there will be 20 million new cancer cases and 9.7 million deaths. The main provocateurs of this disease include smoking (including hookah and electronic cigarettes), alcohol consumption, obesity and overweight, as well as environmental degradation.
Such changes could negatively affect the average age, size and growth of the world’s population, the researchers noted. The biggest increase in cases is expected to be seen in developed countries such as the UK and the USA. Experts also noted that the death rate from cancer will increase.
